Antalya is a big, but very walkable city.
There are many options for beautiful walks in the city, nice and green parks, as well as bike paths. Here’s a nice and easy option for a walk in Antalya, if you’re somewhere near the old town. For most part it goes along the coast, but you’re on top of a cliff, and there’s no beach here in this part of the city.
You can either walk or ride a bike there.

Antalya Old Town to Falez Park: Basics
It’s just a lovely place to go for a walk in Antalya.
It starts right from the old town in the city center, and offers beautiful views of the sea and the nearby mountains. It’s especially nice here shortly before the sunset and right after the sunrise.
For a more adventurous afternoon, check out this scenic hike in Antalya.
OUR ROUTE:
TIME & DISTANCE: around 4 miles / 6.4 km in total (60 – 90 minutes).
In the map above I’ve recorded it only one way.
TIPS: it’s all flat, and you can easily walk or cycle there. There are benches and picnic tables in several places along the way.
Antalya Old Town to Falez Park: Our Experience
Here are a few photos from our walk.
Take into account that it was in May 2021, during a national lockdown, when only tourists were allowed outside. So, don’t expect it to be as empty and quiet on a regular sunny day. It’s very close to the city center and the old town, so it’s a rather busy place in normal times.
Even though it’s a residential area, and in some parts you are walking next to the road, for at least half of the time you’re away from it.

Book Your Trip Like a PRO
1. Book Your Flight. Find cheap flights using Kiwi.com, Momondo.com. Or subscribe to Dollar Flight Club, if you don’t want to be searching for the flights yourself. Kiwi currently is my first choice.
2. Book Your Accommodation. Booking.com, Agoda.com and Airbnb. I use Booking and Agoda at least a dozen times a year, and Airbnb – when looking for a long-term stay. My best tip is to ALWAYS compare the price. Sometimes the same hotel is cheaper on Booking.com, other times – on Agoda. Always compare the price!
3. Buy Your Travel Insurance. Ekta and SafetyWings are two companies I can recommend. Ekta offers some extra benefits, that will be important for those doing some higher risk activities (make sure to choose the right plan!), while SafetyWings is better for digital nomads. SafetyWings is also very affordable.
