Plan from the finish

One of the main sections of the Carian Trail follows the Datça Peninsula. Mark both ends of your chosen stretch. Look at elevation gain, terrain and available daylight as well as distance.

Water and navigation

Download a current trail map for offline use. Confirm that any planned water stop is open and carry enough water from the start. A shorter out-and-back walk can work better on a hot or windy day.
