  Description

  The village is picturesque at 500 meters above the bay of Olympos overlooking the bay of Adrasan. Antalya can be reached in an hour by bus, Kumluca is 16 km away. Adrasan beach has many leisure activities. You can go diving, surfing, climbing, paragliding, mountain biking, hiking and if you are interested in the history of Turkey, a visit to the Chimera, Phaselis or Perge is certainly worth a visit ... Enjoy the gentle, oxygen-rich air on the beach of Olympos and swim with the sea turtles. Even in the winter months there is a mild Mediterranean climate. Feel free to ask for more details.
  
  I also take care of distressed horses who find a refuge at my stable. Aktually, two young horses live here, which are to be accustomed to dealing with humans. There are also one dogs, chickens and some cats.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  No other country offers as many biblical and historical places as Turkey. Especially Lycia was inhabited by different cultures. There is hardly a spot where a lot of finds of the Hittites, Persians, Romans or Ottomans are founded. Besides the traditions, the history of the country is also conveyed.
  
  Enjoy a relaxed bar visit with a water pipe under the lemon tree, discover the rich cuisine with many sauces, oriental spices directly from the garden and grilled chicken a la "Ayşe" or learn to prepare Gözleme according to an anatolian recipe.

  Help

  A 5 years ago, I took over a private horse-pension near Olympos / Adrasan. I need help with some repair at the stable and repair work. The stable roof is leaking, the fence is already very old and a new color makes everything more friendly. More chores are waiting in the garden.
  
  Usually, the interested parties should be skilled and bring along a portion of improvisation. Animal love is assumed. In the training of the horses is always a help welcome. "Bella" is to be used to the saddle and "Tir NaNog" is still a baby, which is to learn to deal with people. My way of living with horses is similar to the natural horsemanship, but I developed my own way. The focus is on respectful and peaceful communication at eye level with the horses. In addition to stable/box care, the animals need their “wellness” and body care, mental and physical training.
  
  I'm looking forward to your visit!
