Fethiye to Kalkan
The old starting gate which you now reach half way through day 2 |
Climbing out of Fethiye on the first afternoon |
The ghost village |
The first of many coastal views |
One of many lovely potential camping spots |
Olive trees are a big feature of the landscape |
Beautiful Kabak beach was unfortunately too rough for swimming |
Rain was quite rare, but here was a thunderstorm approaching |
The view from Catchy Camping where I stopped for a cup of tea |
The first five days were quite rocky |
Generally speaking waymarking was perfectly adequate |
They really wanted to make sure you turned right here! |
High up after a climb the sea looks especially tempting |
The rocky terrain is very much goat country |
Quite a bit of the farmed land is terraced |
Lunch in Gey at a small shop featured pickled olive leaves |
Carpets of daisies |
Wildflowers were in abundance |
The sort of sign a hungry trekker likes to see |
First view of snow covered mountains |
The first five days are especially rocky with lots of up and down |
Tortoises are a common sight on the trail |
The castle walls near Patara beach |
Wonderful stone work seen in the detail of the castle walls |
Letoon lies directly beside the trail |
The beautiful amphitheatre at Xanthos |
Tortoise traffic jam |
There is a lengthy but delightful stretch along a roman aqueduct |
There are views over a veritable sea of greenhouses for tomato production |
The astonishing aqueduct at Delikkemer |
Each section of "pipework" is carved out of solid stone |
The hugely impressive wall supporting the "water pipe" |
