The day

Explore the Lycian city of Olympos beside its stream, rest on Çıralı beach, then walk up in the evening to Yanartaş (the Chimaera), where natural gas flames burn from the mountainside. The evening walk is on a rough uphill path in the dark — bring a headlamp and sturdy shoes; it is optional.
