Köprülü Canyon Full-Day Canyoning, Rafting & Zipline Adventure from Antalya
Spend a full day in Köprülü Canyon rafting through 12 rapids, canyoning through rock pools and jumps, and flying a zipline over limestone cliffs—guided, gear-included, and centered on safety and scenery.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring sturdy water shoes
Riverbed terrain and canyoning demand closed-toe shoes with good traction to protect feet on slick rocks.
Pack a small dry bag
Keep phone, spare clothes, and snacks in a waterproof pouch for the rafting section and lunch break.
Know your swimming limits
You’ll need to swim short stretches and float through rapids—let guides know if you’re uncomfortable in deep water.
Start early to avoid midday heat
Morning departures reduce sun exposure on the river and often mean calmer conditions for zipline and canyoning.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems

Wildlife

Conservation Note
Köprülü Canyon is a national park; operators emphasize leave-no-trace practices and limits on group sizes to reduce erosion and disturbance to riparian habitats.
The canyon area preserves Roman-era engineering, including a surviving bridge that marked an ancient crossing used by traders and local communities for centuries.
