Lycian Way

Lycia hiking

An omnipresent mountain in sublime juxtaposition with the sea; this is, no doubt, the first image you will retain of this voyage on lands that Alexander the Great was the conqueror. The Akdag and Beydaglari massifs are part of the majestic Taurus range. Their slopes are arid in some places, and green in some others, and their calcareous rock are reddened by the iron contained in the ground. Their high summits are snow-covered during most of the year. On this coast with a rich history, added to the amazing spectacle of a sea with limpid water striking the abrupt cliffs, you will discover the archaeological richness dating back to 8th century BC of Greek and Roman cities which are admirably preserved, with a Lycian necropolis lost in the vegetation, or immersed at the bottom of a turquoise sea.

Day 1 : Antalya

Meet with our Anatolia Cultura Travel team at the airport and drive to hotel for the night.
Founded in the 2nd century BC by Attale II, Antalya was occupied successively by Romans, Byzantines, Seljuk’s and the Ottomans. Today it is a pretty city on the Mediterranean coastal.

Day 2: Termessos Antalya

Day 3 : Olimpos > Çirali (Chimerae)

Continue on to Chimerae; we do a short walk to Çirali, where flames sometimes come out between the rocks.

Day 4 : Kekova islands > Kas

Departure for Uçagiz picturesque harbour. Here we take he opportunity for a pleasant boat excursion to discover the archaeological sites well preserved because they are not easily accessible.

By boat, we go round the island, where you will see down to 1 to 2 m depth, in the bluish light of seabeds remains.
