LYCIAN WAY

The Lycian way is a 509 km way-marked footpath around the coast of Lycia in southern Turkey, from Fethiye to Antalya. The Lycian Way is a coastal walk and mild temperatures mean it can be walked throughout the winter months.

The Lycian Way takes its name from the ancient civilization which once ruled the area.

Around twenty major Lycian sites remain today. Arykanda and Olympos are examples that can be visited either independently or on a tour, making for a very nice day out in gorgeous nature.
