Once a thriving Greek settlement, Kayakoy was abandoned during the population exchange between Greece and Turkey (1919–1923), and later damaged by the 1957 earthquake. Now a protected archaeological site, the village offers a unique window into the past with its roofless stone houses, deserted chapels, and silent streets.

We ride along a peaceful forest path that winds through:
- The ruins of Kayakoy, offering a surreal, open-air museum experience
- Surrounding pine forests and olive groves, filled with Mediterranean fragrances
- The new village area, where life continues among the shadows of the old town

As an alternative option, you may choose a Mountain Oludeniz Tour, a horseback trail that takes you through the hills above the famous Blue Lagoon. The journey offers panoramic views over one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, making it a favorite among photographers and nature lovers.
