Lycian Way (Likya Yolu)

The Lycian Way (Likya Yolu) is Turkey's first and most renowned long-distance trekking route. Stretching for roughly 540 kilometers from Fethiye (Ovacık) to Antalya, it is a spectacular collision of deep azure Mediterranean waters, rugged pine-clad mountains, and ancient history. The trail loosely traces the jagged coastline of the ancient Lycian civilization, a confederation of fierce naval city-states. Hikers walk on ancient Roman roads, narrow goat trails, and steep mountain passes, constantly moving between remote, pristine pebble beaches (like Kabak and Patara) and high alpine lookouts (like Mount Olympos/Tahtalı). Along the way, the path weaves directly through dozens of spectacular, overgrown ruins of ancient Lycian cities with their iconic rock-cut tombs.

The Overland Track is a 65km point-to-point alpine traverse through the heart of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. Running from Cradle Mountain to Lake St Clair, the route passes through dramatic glaciated valleys, ancient rainforests, and high moorlands. Under the management of Parks & Wildlife Service Tasmania, the trail offers a deep connection to Tasmania's unique natural heritage, including the endemic King Billy Pine and high dolerite peaks. The route consists of a mix of well-maintained boardwalks, exposed rocky ridges, and forested sections that can become muddy during sustained rainfall.
