DAILY WALKS

PHELLOS (FELEN)- ANTIPHELLOS (KAŞ)

2500 years ago Lycians had created the antique path for reaching the sweet chill of the mountain, so naturally we have no other choice but to follow their example.

The hiking day begins from a forest house. After 20 km. by 4-wheel-drive vehicle or minibus, the route becomes joyful while watching alternating mountain ranges and stone houses.

The starting point at the path is at an altitude of 850 m. After a couple of hundred meters, we give a break for several minutes to enjoy the view of the valley covered with colorful plants and flowers. Later, after another 20-minute walk, we reach a narrow path that leads us to the heart of the ancient city Phellos. The most amazing necropolis of the region, ornamented with ancient tombs, suddenly appears among a thick plant cover. This is a meeting with silent witnesses of history.

Descending to Cukurbag Village, the peculiar architecture of old local houses, still in very good condition, attracts our attention... The magnificent view of Kas Archipelago awaits us at the end of a one hour long walk: we stop for a picnic on a 550-meter high hill, watching Meis Island.

After lunch, we begin to descend towards Antiphellos. With some luck, we may have an encounter with squirrels, partridges, or bats while walking round “Kara Magara-Black Cave”. At its end, our tour will leave you with unforgettable memories.
