Eğiste (formerly: Bağbaşı) is a neighbourhood of the municipality and district of Hadim, Konya Province, Turkey.[1] Its population is 686 (2022).[2] Before the 2013 reorganisation, it was a town (belde).[3][4]

It is situated in Toros Mountains, just at the south of a pass named after Eğiste. It is planned to be the northern terminus of the 17 kilometres (11 mi) Blue Tunnel Project (Turkish: Mavi tünel) where the southern terminal will be Atayurt in Mersin Province. After realising the project water from Göksu River will be fed to Konya villages.
