Tour overview

This 8-day walking holiday is based in the harbour town of Kas, so you stay in one hotel throughout. A tour leader walks with the group, with transfers to the trailheads each day. You stay seven nights in a hotel within walking distance of the old town, with breakfast daily and a home-hosted village lunch.

After an orientation walk around Kas you hike along the coast to Limanagzi Beach. The next day you walk from Gelemis to the vast beach and ancient city of Patara, then follow the Lycian Way between hidden villages in the hinterland, with views over the Mediterranean.

After a free day for a trip to the Greek island of Kastellorizo or the sunken city of Kekova, you drive to the Kuruova Pass for a mountain hike below Mount Akdag and lunch in a village home. A final Lycian Way walk passes two beaches to the Roman port of Andriake.

The physical rating is medium. This holiday suits walkers who want great coastal scenery without changing hotels.
