We walked straight from Kaş, the ancient Antiphellos. Antiphellos means 'against Phellos', figuratively 'below Phellos' or 'port of Phellos'. The trek route is well parked and about 12 km in total. Distance is not great but you will climb up 900m of vertical ascent! The site of Phellos is overgrown and has never been fully excavated. Recently there have been some illegal digs which have exposed a mosaic near the heroon.
