Türkei: Lykischer Weg

The Lycian Way runs along the Turkish Mediterranean coast, constantly alternating between the turquoise sea and the mostly snow-capped peaks of the Taurus Mountains. Turkey's first marked long-distance hiking trail is ideal for discovering the land and its people away from the usual tourist paths. Along the way, you will encounter ancient cities with well-preserved amphitheaters, stone sarcophagi, and tombs, and hike to remote mountain villages where time seems to stand still, and you will be warmly and hospitably welcomed by the locals. This hiking guide is your faithful companion on the approximately 460 km between Fethiye and Antalya, with an alternative coastal route via Tekirova and Phaselis (55 km), providing all the relevant information on the route, sights, as well as accommodation and shopping options. The book offers compact information with map excerpts at a scale of 1:150,000; its handy small format is ideal for on-the-go use.
