Who Started the Lycian Way -Click Here

Back in 1989, a woman named Kate Clow moved from England to Turkey and settled in beautiful Antalya. She totally fell in love with the place (and honestly, who wouldn’t?). She started going on hikes and exploring the area using old footpaths and shepherd trails. Along the way, she realized something pretty amazing — these paths actually connected ancient Lycian cities!

So what did she do? She mapped them all out! She added everything you’d want on an epic hike: scenic viewpoints, lush valleys, charming villages, and mountain plateaus. And just like that, a 500 km hiking trail was born!

With help from a bank that sponsored her project, Kate marked the whole trail and even put up direction signs — then wrote a book about it. Legend!

These days, thousands of people from all over the world come to walk this trail, now known as the Lycian Way.

If you’re planning to give it a try, don’t miss the stretch between Ovacık and Faralya — it’s said to be one of the most beautiful parts of the entire route. Heads up though: there’s a 4 km uphill climb that feels a bit like stairs. It can be tough, especially if you’re new to hiking, but take it slow — trust us, the views are so worth it. Think jaw-dropping landscapes, fresh mountain air, and pure nature vibes.

Every day, tons of international hikers wake up and hit the trail — but surprisingly, not many local tourists know about it. So here’s your sign: go explore it! Experience the magic of nature, history, and adventure. This trail is one of Turkey’s hidden gems. Don’t miss out!
