Guided small-group trek · Fethiye
Fethiye Lycian Way guided trek: 7 days, 6 nights
Updated: 2026-09-08
The five-day Fethiye trek with a night either side. You land at Dalaman, sleep in Fethiye, and start the Ovacık cliff path rested the next morning; at the far end you have Xanthos and a night before the shuttle rather than a museum visit with your boots still on.

The agency’s booking terms
A deposit holds your place; the balance is paid to the agency before the start. Their cancellation terms, as published:
- Cancel 30 days or more before the start: full refund.
- Within 20 days: the deposit is kept.
- Within 15 days: the full tour fee is charged.
- Illness with a hospital report: refunded minus the non-refundable costs. A place can also be transferred to another person.
What the tour page does not tell you
- Minimum four walkers for the fixed departures. Two of you in a quiet month may be offered the private version instead, on your own dates; the price per person is higher but the days are yours.
- Day 5, the Gavurağılı descent, is the hardest day of the week and comes last. Plan the rest of the trip around tired legs the day after.

Questions people actually ask
Where is the first night?
In a hotel in Fethiye, so you can arrive at any hour on day 1 and start walking rested on day 2.
Can we add the Patara and Kalkan stages?
Not to the fixed departure, but as a self-guided extension with bags moved, yes. The Xanthos to Patara and Patara to Kalkan stages are two easy days; ask us.
