With a single day, the goal is to see the heart of the ANZAC battlefields without rushing. This itinerary focuses on the three sites most visitors come for and keeps logistics simple.
It works whether you base yourself in Istanbul on a long day trip or stay overnight in Eceabat or Canakkale for an easier start.
Morning: ANZAC Cove and the landing beaches
Begin at ANZAC Cove, where the dawn landing of 25 April 1915 took place. Nearby are Ari Burnu and Beach Cemetery, with the Sphinx ridge looming above.
Midday: Lone Pine
Move up to Lone Pine, the Australian national memorial, with its roll of the missing and moving headstones among the pines.
Afternoon: Chunuk Bair
Finish at Chunuk Bair, the New Zealand memorial on the high ground, with sweeping views over the peninsula and the straits.
