The completion time of the Lycian Way may vary depending on the performance of the person. In general, in its final form, it can be completed in an average of 21 days. It is possible to plan an average of 25 km per day. However, some days you can increase it to 40 km and on some days you can lower it to 6-8 km. In this way, you can finish it in 21 days.

Considering that the important thing in trekking is the health of the body, clothing materials with suitable comfort come first. You should also take your camping gear with you, as you will camp from place to place.

Every year in May, the Lycian Way is overhauled by the Kate Clow Association team, sponsors and volunteer travelers. The paths are cleared, controlled, and signs arranged. Of course, municipalities do not stand idle either. They are adding new routes to grow such an ore. Hoyran, Çıtdibi and Geyikbayırı are the 3 newly added routes to the Lycian Way. Special attention has been paid to the new routes passing through the villages, thus it is aimed to include the locals in the tourism potential. The good thing is that those who walk on the Lycian Way will now be able to stay in the homes of the villagers and enjoy those delicious village meals.

The Lycian Way is a very enjoyable and challenging walking experience. We recommend you to be prepared, to live this experience accompanied by guides if possible, and we wish you pleasant and healthy walks!

"Great day out on a boat exploring Kekova."

"We had a great day out on a boat exploring Kekova (which we'd booked with Xanthos Travel in Kas). We were picked up from our villa and driven down to the port at Kekova to board the boat. We had a fantastic guide - Baran - who explained how the day would pan out and throughout the day gave us a wonderful insight into the sunken city and history of the area. The boat was very comfortable and all of the crew were helpful. We were treated to a delicious lunch and snacks throughout the day, and loved the moment when the goats reaped the benefits of the leftovers! I would definitely recommend booking with these guys. They do lots of other fantastic trips in the area too."

"Jeep tour in the Kaş nature."

"My friend and I decided to join Xanthos for a jeep tour so we could visit some amazing places that otherwise we couldn't see. We were on the jeep with other 10 people and all the security rules have always been respected from the participants and the staff. A person has always come with the group and has been super helpful and at the same time cheerful. This is a great choice made by the company! An example: in the canyon a member of the group slipped and felt down. The Xanthos's guy immediately helped and checked her. Likely she didn't have any serious issues, so he cheered up again the spirit. With them we also did rafting on a river (not dangerous but a fun experience) and visited some places that in the right time (less crowded) are beautiful and enjoyable! I highly recommend this tour because its organization, staff, food and the natural legs."

"Amazing"

"We went on a days kayak tour. The instructor was good with all of our levels, patient and ensured that we all had a lot of fun. He was also fluent in English and extremely informed about the local area and shared his knowledge with us all. We stopped to swim in beautiful places, ate a fantastic lunch, ate locally made ice cream and also kayaked across the sunken city. It really was a magical day which we will all remember and also great value for money. The organisation was excellent and we couldn't have been in better hands. Will definitely book again."
