Day 1
Transfer pickup
Transfer will pick you up from a hotel or a bus station and drop you at the beginning of the trail.
Demre to Kapakli
Today, you’ll hike 7 kilometers from Demre to Kapaklı. Before you set out, you have the option to visit the ancient city of Myra, where you’ll walk among impressive Lycian rock tombs and a grand Roman theatre that echoes with centuries of history.
The hike along the coastal path is relatively easy, with a few gentle climbs and descents.

About halfway through, you’ll reach a quiet pebble beach, the perfect spot to pause for lunch, dip your feet in the sea, or enjoy a swim in the clear water.

You’ll also have the chance to paddle a self-guided canoe up a quiet creek and spot giant turtles along the way.
Day 2
Kapaklı to Kaleüçağız
Today, you’ll enjoy a gentle 11 km hike from Kapaklı to Kaleüçağız, with no major elevation changes. Along the way, you’ll pass through quiet landscapes dotted with Lycian sarcophagi, reminders of the ancient world nestled among olive groves and wildflowers.

You’ll arrive in the peaceful harbor town of Kaleüçağız before the next highlight of the day: at 15:00, you’ll set off on a private boat tour to explore the sunken city of Kekova—a fascinating Lycian-Roman settlement partially submerged after an ancient earthquake. The tour includes a swimming stop in a beautiful bay, where you can cool off in crystal-clear waters before returning to shore.
Transfer pickup
After the boat tour you will be transferred to then next accommodation.
Day 3
Üzüm İskelesi to Kaş
This stretch of the hike offers stunning sea views throughout and a total ascent of 450 meters. You’ll follow rocky trails with the turquoise sea always in sight. There’s even a chance to take a refreshing swim at a wild, secluded spot — perfect for those up for a bit of adventure.

You have two route options:
1️⃣ Hike + Boat (9 km): hike along the rugged coastline, then take a short boat ride into Kaş — a relaxed way to finish the journey while skipping the final urban section.

2️⃣ Full Hike (13 km): Walk the full 13 km all the way to Kaş. This option takes you into town on foot, offering a satisfying conclusion to your trek.
As you arrive in Kaş, your hike comes to a peaceful and memorable finish — the perfect end to a truly special adventure along the Lycian Way.
