Fethiye'den Antalya'ya 540 km — Türkiye'nin en büyük uzun mesafe parkurunun her etabını keşfedin.
The Lycian Way (Likya Yolu) is a 540 km long-distance hiking trail running along Turkey's southwest coast from Fethiye in the west to Antalya in the east. Walking the full route takes roughly 25–30 days; the trail is divided into 27 stages (including two alternate inland routes) so hikers can plan day-by-day, walk a section, or tackle the whole thing.
Each stage page below has its own distance, elevation profile, difficulty grade, terrain notes, water and shade availability, and a description of what you'll see along the way. Tap any stage to read the full guide.
Western coast (stages 1–7): Fethiye to Patara via Ölüdeniz, Faralya, Alınca, and the Patara dunes. Coastal cliffs, pine forest, and the Mediterranean lagoon at Butterfly Valley. Mostly moderate; sections of mountain.
Central coast and Kekova (stages 8–13): Kalkan, Kaş, the sunken city of Kekova, Aperlae, and Üçağız. The most photogenic section — clifftop paths, rock-cut Lycian tombs, ancient harbours. Generally accessible.
Demre and Olympos (stages 14–18): Demre's Lycian Necropolis, the long Karaöz beach, and into the chimera-flames region above Olympos. Mixed coastal and forest terrain.
Olympos to Antalya mountains (stages 19–27): The rugged eastern section over the Beydağları range, past Mount Tahtalı (2,366 m), and down to the eastern outskirts of Antalya. The hardest stages of the route — exposed ridgelines, long climbs, technical terrain.
Most thru-hikers complete the 540 km route in 25–30 walking days, plus 2–4 rest days at scenic stops like Kaş or Çıralı. Faster hikers do it in 22–25 days; relaxed walkers including extra rest days can take 35+. Daily distances range from 8 km to 22 km depending on the stage.
The most photographed stretches are Ovacık to Faralya (Butterfly Valley views), Kalkan to Kaş (clifftop coastal walk), Aperlae to Üçağız (Kekova sunken city panoramas), and Olympos to Çıralı (chimera flames at night). The eastern mountain stages from Beycik via Tahtalı are spectacular but demanding.
The central coastal stages are typically the most accessible — Patara to Kalkan, Kalkan to Kaş, and Kaş to Limanağzı are all moderate-difficulty with reliable accommodation, water sources, and clear way-marking. Easier still: pick a Highlights tour for first-timers or do a 2–3 day section walk before committing to a longer trip.
Most stages end in a village or small town with at least one pension, guesthouse, or boutique hotel. Some isolated stages end at a single trekkers' lodge — book ahead in peak season. The accommodation directory lists every verified place along the trail by stage. Wild camping is technically permitted but only practical on a few stages with reliable water.
Yes — the entire trail is way-marked with red-and-white painted blazes (the standard Grande Randonnée system). Markers appear roughly every 50 m on rocks, trees, or walls. The route is also fully covered by our offline GPS app, which is recommended as a backup, especially in fog or for the inland mountain stages where blazes can be faded.
Absolutely — most hikers do. Local dolmuş minibuses connect many trailheads to nearby towns, so you can walk a section, ride to the next, and resume. Popular shortened versions: Fethiye to Patara (7–8 days, all coast), Patara to Demre (6–7 days, Lycian sites), or Olympos to Antalya (8 days, mountains). Each stage page lists transport access.
