On the Lycian Way
The mountain of the seers
Ovacık – Faralya
The way begins on the shoulder of Telmessos. This city was famous for its divination: according to Herodotus, Croesus of Lydia sent men here to have an ill omen read, and Alexander too consulted the seers of Telmessos. The first day climbs the mountain behind the city — Anticragus in antiquity — and leaves the lagoon of Ölüdeniz far below.
The whole Lycian Way — 12 stages, 540 km
