The Lycian way

Written November 2007
What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?
The walk to the Lighthouse with the views out over the Med was neat. Overnighting on the boat was cool. Camping out before climbing Mt Olympus. Sunken city, ruins at Myra, blue skies day after day , cold Efes to drink - lots of good memories.

Some great moments, some not so good.

Written September 2007
What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?
Having seen and read about the walk as one of the 10 great walks of the world, I was expecting something more. Undoubtedy it has some high spots-the ruins of Olympus, Kerkova, kayaking over the sunken city, and the coastal sections of walking were very good, but the mountain scenery did not offer dramatic peaks, often seeming a bit repetitive, with the vegetation very scrubby in many parts. That said, there was nothing unpleasant, and the Turkish people were all very friendly and hospitable, with opportunites during the trip to wander about without a guide in the villages and towns allowing us to see more of rural life in Turkey than expected. Not the classic trek I expected, but still a pretty enjoyable trip.

Turkey Rocks !

Written September 2007
What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?
I normally choose holidays that include a lot of high altitude walking and wondered if I was going to really enjoy this holiday but the sense of walking through history made this a remarkable trip. Visiting the site of Myra is an optional extra that I strongly recommend you do as it is a sight you will never forget, the craftsmanship is staggering. Along with amazing flora and fauna and rugged terrain I really felt that I saw the real Turkey not the plastic beach resort variety. On a couple of days you walk to a beach and are then picked up by boat so you get a mini cruise and swim for your money which is just as well as the terrain is rugged and very rocky on the mountains and lower levels it certainly presents a challenge.

Trekking the Lycian Way in Turkey

Written September 2007
What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?
Walking in the mountains. The scenery, wildlife and campsite were all great. I didn't realise that Turkey had chameleons! We also saw a few snakes and plenty of tortoises. The views in the mountains were lovely.
