More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You kick gravel, the engine answers, and the Mediterranean light throws hard shadows under the pines as you climb away from Fethiye's bays. The route threads scrubby terraces, short climbs and soft dirt ruts; occasional clearings open onto wide views of the Gulf of Fethiye and the distant Lycian hills. Wind, sun, and the thrum of the quad set a brisk, focused rhythm.
