Itinerary description

This stretch starts in busy and touristic Ölüdeniz, but quickly gives way to remote and absolutely stunning views over the Mediterranean. The first part of the hike is definitely the highlight. Once you enter the first villages there's still a lot to see but you often share the road with vehicles and you'll encounter more construction sites and less pristine nature. The stretch between Faralya and Kabak was a welcome reunion with the more quiet hiking trails we encountered during the first 1/3 of the hike. We were also glad we spent the night in Kabak and not in Faralya as the latter had a better view over the sea and felt more atmospheric.
