Its story
The St. Paul Trail is a hiking route of about 500 km starting at the ancient city of Perge, about 10 km east of Antalya, and running to Yalvaç, northeast of Lake Eğirdir. It takes its name from following part of the route taken by St. Paul on his first missionary journey in Anatolia. The route starts at sea level, climbs to 2200 meters, and is waymarked with red-and-white signs to Grande Randonnée standards. A second branch starting at Oluk Bridge in Köprülü Canyon joins the main route at the ancient city of Adada. The trail is among the routes of the Culture Routes Society and became known through Kate Clow's guidebook published in 2004. In the OpenStreetMap route record, the trail starts at this point by the Perge entrance and heads north.
