Selge is one of the most difficult sites in S Turkey to visit. As far as Beşkonak the road is reasonably good. From there to the settlement of Zerk / Altınkaya, which occupies the site of the ancient city, there is a very rough track, suitable only for a jeep.

At first the road to Beşkonak runs through a pleasant wooded landscape, sometimes approaching, sometimes drawing away from the Eurymedon river. About 5km N of Beşkonak it reaches a restaurant and coffee house, where a pause for refreshment may be made before starting the strenuous climb to Zerk. Where the road forks just beyond the restaurant take the left hand track, signposted Altınkaya. This leads to a Roman bridge, which spans a deep gorge between two cliffs. Across the bridge, turn right on to a minor road that climbs steadily to the village of Zerk. This road's many sharp bends and very rough surface demand careful driving.

The mountain landscape is spectacularly beautiful. Deep gorges clothed in cypress and cedar recedes into the distance in ever higher.
