Hellenistic Tombs at Patara

Highlight • Historical Site

Those tombs are most likely of Hellenistic origins as they do not follow the older pre-Hellenistic Lycian style and there are no sarcophagi parts around. As it doesn't have rounded arches, a typical sign for Roman/later Byzantine architecture, Hellenistic or Hellenized Lycian it must be.

Deep Stone Well

Highlight • Structure

Inconspicuous fountain... not very helpful for hikers, as it is not easy to get to the water, if it even still holds any.

View of Patara Beach

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful panoramic view of the eternally long sandy beach of Patara... in front of it, you can already glimpse part of the ruins, which you will later pass on the Lycian Way.

Roman Aqueduct Foundations Trail

Highlight • Historical Site

The narrow path leads along the remains of the Delikkemer aqueduct... at first, you don't see much, only later do you realize what you've been walking on

October 11, 2024,Lycian Way Delikkemer-Ancient Patara - Patara Beach
The walk starts just below the Roman aqueduct spanning the ravine at Delikkemer. For quite some time, you will be actually walking on top of the fundaments of this ancient water pipes. There is only one fresh water source and no cafe in route until you hit the beach.
