Turkey’s second most popular culture route is Carian Trail where Lycian Way is the first.
Carian Trail is 800 km long distance culture route lies in Southwest Turkey through the provinces of Muğla and Aydın. The trail is named from Carian civilization. You discover a region rich in history and Aegean traditions. Paved and mule paths connect villages from coast to a mountainous hinterland. Pine forests, olive terraces and almond groves are an important part of Carian Trail.
Trail is signed and waymarked however we recommend you to use a GPS or Wikiloc app.
Travellers to hike and enjoy the scenic beauty and cultural treasures of Caria can swim in turquoise waters from deserted beaches, climb through pine scented forests, discover ancient ruins and view the Greek islands of the South Aegean. Goats and Donkeys still roaming the remote forests of the Datca peninsula, gulets in Bozburun, Neolithic cave paintings of the Herakleia (Lake Bafa) and more awaits you for a new adventure…
