1929

Sapadere Canyon, which has become a mecca for those who want to escape Alanya’s summer heat and freshen themselves, is literally a wonder of nature that worths visiting. Sapadere Canyon is 750 metres long, nearly 400 metres high and is located near Sapadere village. Sapadere Canyon has been a spectacular tourism site thanks to some projects, one of which is the path for walking, located on the point from which Sapadere River starts of the canyon, with steel bricks shoring it up and the other ones of which are picnic areas, village taverns and suchlike investments. The canyon is 40 kilometers away from Alanya and you can easily reach by going through Demirtaş village’s tarmac.

There is a marvellous waterfall nearly 300 meter inside of the canyon’s entrance and, where the water falls is a natural pool that is big enough for swimming.

The walking platform which is designed particulary for the canyon’s visitors is made with wooden and steel construction materials. There is no way this platform can damage the environment and it can rise up when it is necessary.
