İtecik Lalesi Tabiatı Koruma Alanı covers 5 hectares within the boundaries of Kayaağıl village in the central district of Uşak and was declared on 5 August 2020. Its development plan is still awaiting approval.
The plant it is named for is Paeonia peregrina — a peony, although the local name calls it a tulip. Along with it, the meadows and the forest and river ecosystems are given as the area's assets.
There is no public transport to the site; visitors make their own way. The route runs from Uşak to Kayaağıl village and then along the road towards the İtecik hill tower. Beyond the village the road is unsurfaced, very stony and steep. The area lies 12 kilometres south-west of Uşak.
