Alicati
Alicati is one of those beautifull places in the wester region of Turkiye . On one and a half hour driving from Izmir you find this lovely village overloaded with pink beagonville flowers and a greek style atmosphere. Perfect to sip on your cup of coffee reading your favorite book soaking up the friendly atmosphere around you…. or make lots of insta worthy pictures here to show off online..
Hiking holidays at the westcoast
The westcoast from Turkiye has several long distance hiking trails. Ancient kings roads to travel from city to city. Donkey paths through the mountains with stunning vieuws and lovely little villages. I hiked them all and did choose the best etappes for you combined in a holiday pack. My favorite ? The Carian trail and the Efes Mimas trail they are both outstanding.
