Full-Day Köprülü Canyon Adventure: Rafting, Zipline, Quad & Jeep from Alanya
A single-day, action-packed loop from Alanya combines a 14 km river run through Köprülü Canyon with a canyon-spanning zipline and off-road buggy, quad and jeep legs across the Taurus foothills. Expect a guided, full-day itinerary with gear, lunch and hotel transfer.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring a small dry bag
Electronics and essentials should ride in a buoyant, sealed dry bag—rafts and river spray are constant.
Wear secure, grippy footwear
Closed-toe water shoes or trail sandals with straps work for rafting and transition to the quads and jeeps.
Protect against the sun
High-elevation sun and reflective water exposure make SPF, a hat, and polarized sunglasses important.
Charge before pickup
Phone batteries drain fast with photo and video use—bring a power bank; guides usually provide pro photos for sale.

Conservation Note
Köprülü Canyon is a protected national park—operators follow regulated rafting corridors and visitors are asked to pack out trash, avoid disturbing riverbanks, and respect seasonal vegetation.
The canyon area contains Roman-era crossings and sits near ancient settlements that used the river as a trade and transit corridor; remnants of stonework are visible near trailheads.
