“On the Lycian Way, you’re not just a traveler; you’re a time traveler, tracing the footsteps of Lycian League messengers and traders.”

Embark on the Lycian Way, where every step echoes the ancient whispers of a civilization long past. Along this Mediterranean masterpiece, cliffs adorned with history meet turquoise shores kissed by adventure. The Lycian Way is not just a trail; it’s a dialogue with antiquity, a dance with nature, and a pilgrimage through time, inviting hikers to tread upon the path where myth and reality intertwine. As you traverse its winding trails, you become part of a living narrative, absorbing the essence of Lycia’s mystique.
The Lycian Way Trail, Likya Yolu in Turkish, is a long-distance hiking trail in Turkey. Specifically it runs along the Aegean Coast to the South West of the country. This area of the coast is often called the Turquoise Coast, owing to the fantastic colour of the sea. It offers some of the finest coastal walking in the world. You’ll be enchanted by the scenery, the Turkish hospitality and of course, the food!
