I am excited to embark on a 9-day adventure with my wife, Lena, along the Lycian Way in Turkey. This region is renowned for its breathtaking coastal trails, ancient ruins, and charming villages. The Lycian Way offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, making it an ideal destination for us to explore together. As avid hikers, we are drawn to the idea of trekking through scenic landscapes while discovering hidden gems along the path. Since we haven't booked any hotels, we'll be embracing the spirit of adventure by camping along the way, which allows us to fully immerse ourselves in the surroundings and connect with nature. This journey promises to be a memorable experience, combining our love for hiking with the opportunity to delve into Turkey's rich history and culture.
