Bikepacking Turkey was a 9 day bikepacking trip beginning in Antalya and finishing in Istanbul. We rode gravel bikes with slick tyres which was perfect for the varied road conditions, some gravel riding and of course carrying our bikepacking bags. We started the trip a few days after Christmas and spent the first week of January on the road. As expected the conditions were mixed, but noe the less it proved to be an excellent trip.
