Demre to Kaleucagiz
Today, you’ll hike 15 kilometers (200m total ascents and descent) from Demre to Kaleucagiz. 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.
Shortly after the first third of the hike, 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.
For a bit of extra adventure, you can paddle a self-guided canoe up a quiet creek and spot giant turtles along the way.
