Now to make your trip from this city complete, we proudly promote to you a tour you’ll never forget that starts from Saklikent to Yakapark and to Tlos!
Saklikent Canyon
The first destination of this daily tour is Saklikent Canyon (a.k.a. Saklıkent Gorge). It is the deepest and longest gorge in Turkey, 50 km away from Fethiye and is only forty (40) minutes’ drive away. It is a stunning geological site that offers magnificent and colossal cliff faces that were formed throughout the centuries by melting snow and abrasion of the rocks by flowing waters. The Saklikent Canyon has a length of 18 km and a depth of 300 meters. It is a perfect holiday destination during summer that will allow you to feel the gushing cool waters from Ulupinar springs where water bubbles up under great force from the cliff’s bases and take in the wonderful scenery by leisurely hiking up to 4km of the canyon.
Yakapark
For the second destination, we have the Yakapark Restaurant located at the Yaka Village, which is 40 km away and only a 50-minute drive from the Saklikent Gorge. If the gorge’s adventures and treks have you exhausted, Yakapark will refill you with relaxation through its very calm atmosphere. It is a trout fish farm, which boasts a stunning view of waterfalls; streams and fresh spring water that will drive away the summer heat. Yakapark Restaurant will give you lunch that will fill your stomach with its open buffet and delicious foods.
Tlos
After the soothing sights of Yakapark, you will feast your eyes with the mystic ruins of Tlos, which is our last but never the least breath-taking destination to complete your daily excursion. It is situated some 2.5 kilometres away from the Yakapark Restaurant. It is an ancient ruined Lycian hilltop citadel that was believed to be the major religious Lycian Cites. Look around at Tlos and its wondrous historical and ancient ruins that’ll suit the best to people who love a little bit of history. However, everybody will definitely love to see the remains of luxury homes, amphitheatres, market halls and baths in ancient times covered with vines. The tour in Tlos will not only give you a glimpse of the ancient past, but will also awe you with its entertaining history.
