Lycia is the mountainous bump on the South coast of Turkey, where the Taurus range plunges into the glittering Mediterranean. The Lycian Way follows Greek and Roman roads and acqueducts, traditional nomad trails and forest tracks around the coast, rising over ranges and diverting around deltas. Existing tracks have been linked up to form a continuous walking route that stretches over 530 km, soars along cliffs, wind trough forests, pauses at deserted beaches and takes several detours inland. Old fishing villages, now tourist honeypots, offer supplies, accomnodation and a break form the solitude of the trail
