This much improved walking adventure holiday trekking the Lycian Way in Turkey is delightfully packed with eastern promise. Bathed by the blue waters of the Mediterranean, the Lycian Way offers splendid scenic walking along the Turquoise Coast of Turkey, a region famous for its wonderfully rugged scenery, friendly people and great archaeological interest. From Antalya, we will be walking for 5 days to Cape Gelidonia, with the chance of trekking to the summit of Mount Olympos (2388m) en route. Vivid seascapes, encounters with local people at their isolated villages along the Lycian Way and time to chill out on the pristine Turquoise Coast beaches are all part of this walking holiday experience. A comfortable Gulet cruise boat then transports us back to our starting place - a suitably relaxing conclusion to a splendid trekking holiday along the Lycian Way in Turkey.
Trip Guide
The Lycian Way is a recently established, waymarked path, which follows a mix of dirt roads, tracks and trails. Regular hillwalkers will not have a problem with the underfoot conditions encountered on this trekking holiday. Averaging 15 kilometres walking per day, the sections of the Lycian Way which we have included in this holiday also involve a lot of up and down. This is a low level walk and participants will not have any difficulty associated with the altitudes attained. For those who choose to trek to the summit of Mount Olympos, this will be quite a tough day. We have full vehicle support during this trip and the group's luggage will be transported to the next overnight stop by road. Participants will carry just a small day-sack during the walking.
