Bounded by the modern-day Turkish provinces of Ankara,
Afyonkarahisar, Eskisehir, and Kutahya is the land that was once
ruled by the Phrygians. Criss-crossing this land, where the
Phrygians held sway at the beginning of the first millennium BCE,
are countless old roads and footpaths. Following these tracks, and
waymarked to international standards, the Phrygian Way is a
long-distance walking and cycling route, allowing the visitor to
explore not only the wonder of the Phrygian Valleys through which
it passes, but also the countless Roman, Byzantine, and Seljuk
monuments which dot its 501 km length. This guide book has been
prepared to enable the trekker or cyclist to discover the secrets
of Phrygia, a kingdom bound up in tales of the legendary King Midas
and the mother goddess Cybele. As well as providing general
information on the area, the book gives detailed descriptions and
directions for the route, GPS points, and camping or other
accommodation possibilities along the Way. All that is needed to
make this journey into mysterious Phrygia, and to become a part of
mythology itself is a backpack! Prepare to travel 3000 years into
history!
