In 2024, we are gathering for the first edition of Exploring Lycia on April 6-10!
We will experience a holistic journey with activities such as walkingmeditation, discussions on nature and psychology, exploring healing paths, and workshops including yoga, art therapy, and rhythm. We will also discuss the technical requirements for surviving in nature and the skills needed for long-distance walks.
We are part of nature. With each step we take, just like nature, we will feel that we are beautiful just as we are, true to ourselves. We will spend time observing the traces of history carried by Lycia for thousands of years, the stories of societies, and breathtaking landscapes, creating lasting memories in our minds.
"In the third year of Exploring Lycia, we will be with you with three different editions! As always, we will explore the natural and historical wonders of the Lycian Way, enjoy activities at Babakamp, and create brand new memories."
Babakamp has various accommodation options to make you feel at home. Our wooden and stone houses have their own private bathrooms and wood burner heaters available. Our nomad houses and Baba Cabins are wonderful glamping options that use the shared bathrooms around the Babakamp area. You can also bring your own tent or caravan to enjoy nature.
