Full description
Your day begins with a relaxed morning pickup from your Antalya hotel, where a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle whisks you northeast toward the foothills of the Taurus Mountains. As the coastal sprawl gives way to fragrant pine forest and winding mountain roads, your guide shares stories of the region while the temperature drops and the air turns crisp and clean. The journey ends at the rafting base camp deep inside Köprülü Canyon National Park, where the roar of the Köprüçay River already hints at the adventure ahead.
After a thorough safety briefing and a fitting of your helmet, life jacket and paddle, you push off into water so clear and cold it takes your breath away. Over roughly 14 kilometres you tackle a thrilling string of rapids interspersed with serene stretches where sheer canyon walls rise hundreds of metres on either side. You will drift beneath the elegant arch of the ancient Roman Oluk Bridge, pause to leap from smooth boulders into deep emerald pools, and work as a team to power through churning whitewater that sends spray flying over the bow.
Back on dry land, a hearty open-buffet lunch is served at a shaded riverside restaurant, where the scent of grilled meat mingles with mountain air and you can dangle tired feet in the cool current. With time to relax, swap stories and snap a few photos before the drive home, you will return to your hotel by late afternoon, sun-kissed and exhilarated. Reserve your place on this unforgettable Köprülü Canyon rafting escape and discover why it remains Antalya's most beloved active day out.
