The Lycian Way (Turkish: Likya Yolu) is a marked long-distance hiking trail in southwestern Turkey around part of the coast of ancient Lycia.

[2] Lycia was a region on the Western Taurus Mountains in Teke Peninsula at southwestern Anatolia on the Mediterranean Sea coast, located in what are today the provinces of Muğla and Antalya.

They built city-states along the Mediterranean Sea coast, such as Xanthos, Patara, Myra, Pinara, Tlos, Olympos, and Phaselis, and formed the Lycian League.

The long-distance trail is waymarked after the French Grande Randonnée special system, and the intersections are marked with yellow directional signs.

[5] Clow wrote a guidebook[3] in which the characteristics of the trail, such as the width of the path, the kinds of waymarks, and the distance and hiking time of the stages, are described.

[4] The region has hot, dry summers and mild winters with low annual rainfall due to the prevailing Mediterranean climate.

[5] Other useful equipment includes compass, trail map, whistle, pocket knife, headlight, camera, lighter, spare battery, a small first-aid kit, and a mobile phone.
