İzmir

Karakuyu - Selçuk

Small but challenging hills await us on this 53-kilometer-long route. The narrow and asphalt village roads that will bring us closer to Selcuk might tire us a bit.

We’ll pass by the ancient city of Metropolis and going through local villages, we’ll arrive in Ephesus from the shore of the Küçük Menderes River that brings life to the region’s agriculture.
