Itinerary description

Moderate loop trail taking in a lot (but not all) of the ancient Lycian city of Pinara. Stunning views of both the scenery and the ancient ruins.
WARNING
There is a tricky descent on the return which would be difficult for anyone not sure footed or confident near steep edges. This section would definitely be treacherous when wet and probably best avoided at those times.

    I am very grateful for this walk Huw. Pinara was one of the highlights of my trip, and a rather unexpected one. As you also point out, the decent to go to the King's Tomb is indeed a tricky one and should be handled accordingly. That said, Pinara was simply a treat - so thanks.
