Alanya to Köprülü Canyon: Jeep Safari, Rafting and Zipline

Köprülü Canyon from forest track to river

A day on the slopes and banks of the Köprüçay

Start with hotel pickup from Alanya and travel inland to Köprülü Canyon in the foothills of the Taurus Mountains. The day follows the same valley across very different terrain.

Forest tracks lead to open slopes, the road gives way to a short walk, and the route eventually reaches the banks of the Köprüçay River.

Jeep safari and Tazı Canyon

At the canyon, switch to an off-road vehicle for the jeep safari. The route passes through wooded stretches and along dirt roads near rural settlements.

In open sections you can see how the valley sits between the slopes of the Taurus Mountains. Expect a bumpier ride once the vehicles leave the paved road.

At Tazı Canyon, get out of the jeep for a short walk with the group. This is a chance to look over the landscape at walking pace and take photographs during the stop.

The guide chooses where the group walks according to the conditions on the ground before continuing to the rafting base.

Guided rafting on the Köprüçay

The Köprüçay changes pace along the route. Faster sections give way to quieter bends, where the crew has more time to look around.

The guide steers and calls out instructions so the group can paddle together. On the quicker stretches, following the same rhythm helps everyone respond to the current.

Lunch beside the river

Lunch at a restaurant beside the river gives the group time to sit down after the rafting section.

If you have a dietary requirement or would prefer a vegetarian meal, mention it when booking.

The team can check what the restaurant is able to provide on the day of your visit.

A zipline between the two banks

The standard zipline crosses the river in two stages. The first takes you to the far bank and the second brings you back across the water.

You see the stretch of valley from above after spending part of the day at river level. Guests who skip the ride can rest near the activity area while the group finishes.

After the last stop, the return transfer takes you back to the hotel pickup point shown in your confirmation.
