It is very
tempting, to simply enjoy the fantastic climate and just soak in the
sun by the pool all day. The area however has many activities to
offer, whether it's simply walking in the forest and mountains, or
something more adventurous!. I hope that here you will find a few
ideas. |

Walking |
The
Lycian Way begins near
Oludeniz and ends just before
Antalya, taking in
choice mountain landscapes and seascapes en route. It follows 500 kms
of ancient footpaths and mule roads that linked the villages of the
Turquoise Coast. What really distinguishes this walk is it's intimate,
almost careless relationship with history. Lycia, in particular
enjoyed a period of ascendancy and unique culture before falling into
the hands of Alexander the Great`s successors and then the Romans.
Later, Arabs, Crusaders and Genoese established themselves. Traces of
all these hands are visible still, and nowhere more so than along this
path, their romance and charm enhanced by the old stones lying
naturally among the scrub.The Lycian Way is
considered to be amongst the top ten best walks in the world

Paragliding |
Oludeniz / Turkey has one of the highest commercial take off sites in
the world, at 6500ft, giving you the most spectacular flight of them
all. A friend we met plucked up the courage to go, but had second
thoughts when she arrived at the launch point. What finally persuaded
her to go through with the flight, was the even more terrifying
journey back down the mountain by jeep!

Boat Trips |
Butterfly Valley is a great day trip from Oludeniz. It is home to
the unique Jersey Tiger butterfly. Between June and September,
butterflies in thousands of colours and countless varieties can be
seen here. This valley is an interesting canyon with steep cliffs up
to 350 meters high and stretches back from the cove some 3-4
kilometers. To get to Butterfly Valley, you can take a boat from
either Oludeniz or Fethiye Taxi boats leave from Ölüdeniz three times
a day in both directions - an alternative for the adventurous and
well-shod hiker is to follow the steep and rocky slope down from the
upper rim of the valley, following the footpath from in front of
"George House," on the road to Faralya/Kabak (gauge about 30 min.).
Butterfly Valley with it`s untouched nature, most amazing beach and
basic facilities (no electricity, tv or any earthly possesions) - only
a small restaurant and simple beach huts - is a total relaxation
destination.
