Safari in The Mountains behind Kas are some of the most beautiful
anywhere in the Taurus. Below the tree line, & winter snow,
are the yayla (highland plateaux.) Falling away from them; canyons,
gorges and passes, down which in spring the melting snow rushes.
Many of these gorges were important trade routes, some still in
use, some completely forgotten, though all at one time jealousy
guarded. The scenery is dramatic: extensive pine and cedar forest,
outcrops of juniper and plane and varied maquis are topped by
the impressive Ak Mountains; snowcapped unit July, thereafter
turning a light red until the Autumn snow. Until recently the
tracks between villages were for donkeys and pack animals and
these tracks can still now be followed, describing meandering
and varied terrain instead of the direct vehicle roads which replaced
them. Whether your interests be in the steps of forgotten civilisations,
the geography and nature of a beatiful land or the attraction
of unspoilt village life you will love walking and hiking in Lycian
