The Experience

Before You Go

Bring water shoes

Closed-toe, strap-secure water shoes will protect feet in the raft and during buggy stages; no flip-flops allowed.

Pack a dry pouch

Keep phone, ID and cash in a waterproof pouch or dry bag for rafting and zipline photos.

Sun protection is necessary

The canyon offers limited shade—use high-SPF sunscreen and a brimmed hat for transfer and waiting periods.

Arrive ready for a long day

This is a roughly 6-hour excursion including transfers; eat a light breakfast and expect to return late afternoon.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Riverside pools and shallow side channels ideal for calm swims during stops
  • A quiet viewpoint above the canyon where local shepherd tracks reveal unobstructed canyon vistas

Wildlife

  • Bonelli’s eagle (occasionally soaring above the canyon)
  • Wild boar and fox tracks in the forested slopes

Conservation Note

Köprülü Canyon sits inside protected areas where river flow and visitor numbers are managed; follow Leave No Trace practices and avoid disturbing riverbanks and wildlife.

The Köprülü Canyon corridor has long served local rural communities and shepherd routes; its cliffs and bridges show centuries of human movement alongside the river’s erosive power.
