St. Paul Trail is the second long distance walking route of Turkey. It runs some 500 kms, starting from just east of Antalya, into the lake district of Turkey. It passes through some of the greenest parts of Taurus mountains where natural pine, cedar, oak and juniper forests are abound. Then it descend onto the Lakes district with its fertile plains full of fruit trees and fields. Untouched by time, the pastoral life style, the richness of history, the beauty of the nature and diversity of wild life gives this area almost everything a trekker would like to encounter on a walk.

As Middle Earth team we are proud to have been a part of this Project from the very early stages. We helped Kate Clow, (the author of St Paul Trail book and the creator of the Project) with route finding, field research, waymarking and organization of the Project. We dont think it is too much to say “We have the best equipped team to run tours on this new route.”
