Abstract
This study was carried out in 2018-2019 for the purpose of habitat classification of the Cilo glaciers and their surroundings, which have significant biodiversity within the borders of the National park of Hakkari Province and have been under serious threat especially due to global climate change in recent years. As a result of the studies, 11 habitat types were determined on the area according to habitat types of The European Nature Information System (EUNIS) and observations about these habitats were given. In addition, 4 types of vegetation are determined according to the plant density with satellite images of the area. This research reveals the importance of habitat type determination studies for important nature areas
