Ortaca

Riding a horse in Ortaca

In Ortaca, it means riding a horse, getting into a boat in Dalyan, and crossing to Çandır. Short tours on the farm, in the nature of the lake or the spa. The children start in the carriage. Twelve kilometers from the district to the village; then a narrow canal, a short walk. When asked, “Are there any horses in Ortaca?” the answer is a bit indirect: the horses are on the other side of the village, in the village.

The district is at its own pace, the town is more touristy, and Çandır is more quiet. All three can be part of the same vacation. Have breakfast in the district, ride a horse in the afternoon, and have dinner in the town again… or stay in the town and cross the canal. Whichever is closer to your home. If you’re visiting for the first time, ask us about the crossing; don’t give up because you’ll “get lost.” Once you see it, it’s easy to remember.

It’s nice to get out in the cool morning. In the afternoon, the road and the horse are a bit heavier in the heat. Hat, water, comfortable pants. If the kids are tired of the pool, a short ride; if the adults want silence, a lake. Don’t cram them both into the same day, spread them out over two days.

The Ortaca to At tour route and day are described a little more. In summer, just say which hotel you started from to start the conversation.
