Saklıkent Gorge
Saklıkent Kanyonu
One of Turkey's deepest canyons, with walls about 300 m high. In summer you wade through icy streams deep into the gorge.
Saklıkent Gorge is about 18 km long, and visitors can enter about 4 km of it. A wooden walkway clings to the cliff at the entrance, after which you must wade through bitterly cold rapids and trudge through mud. The narrowest point in the gorge is only a few metres wide. There is an admission fee, and you can rent non-slip water shoes. Protect your phone and camera from water. Near the entrance are a trout restaurant and river-rafting activities. It is about 45 km from Fethiye and is often combined with the ancient city of Tlos for a day trip.
