Itinerary

What to expect

DAY 1

Transfer. HIKE Bahçeli – Taşlıca (7 km +243m -273) & Optional Arap Island Walk (8 km +-286m)

After your arrival to Dalaman Airport, you will take the shuttle bus to Marmaris and then our transfer will take you to the beginning of the hike in Bahçeli. The stony path ascends towards the coast with fantastic views of nearby Rhodes. The path continues above the dramatic coastline before heading inland to the village of Taslıca. Check into your accommodation here to take a rest or if you are still feeling good, add another 8 km of out and back trail to Arap Island Cove for a wild beach with turquoise waters. 

Overnight in Karya Taş Pension (Village Homestay), Taşlıca 

DAY 2

HIKE Taşlıca – Karayüksek – Cumhuriyet 12 km +466/-700 m

Today’s walk takes you around Karayüksek, the small peak towering over the village, down to Sindili Plain for the ruins of ancient Phoinix. The trail then continues down to Cumhuriyet hamlet, a hidden gem of the Peninsula. The hike is rocky but incredibly scenic with near 360-degree views of the sea and surrounding Greek islands. 

Overnight at Suna House, Söğüt

DAY 3

HIKE Cumhuriyet – Bozburun (12 km +-230m)

This is an easy day with a half day hike. The day starts directly from the hotel. The coastal path passes by small coves and villages before reaching Bozburun’s nearby shipyard. Bozburun is world-famous for its traditional type of boat, called ‘gulets’. You can see how they make or maintain the boats here. The route then continues on another path with nice views of Bozburun and nearby islets before reaching the small coastal town of Bozburun. 

Overnight in Suna Pension, Bozburun

DAY 4

HIKE Bozburun – Selimiye (10 km +-235m)

The hike starts directly from the pension and heads towards a small cove called Germe. The path goes through a small hamlet and starts ascending to a saddle with nice views of Bozburun and the mountains. Reaching the saddle, the route continues on a dirt road and descends down to Selimiye with views of the lake-like bay and the mountains surrounding it. Selimiye is a small town on the coast and the perfect place to spend an afternoon. And then the transfer will take you back to Marmaris town.
