Nestled near Turkey’s “Turquoise Coast,” Saklikent Gorge offers a thrilling escape from the typical beachside chill. Just an hour’s drive inland, this dramatic canyon, the largest in Turkey, stretches 18 kilometers long with walls up to 300 meters high. Known as the "Hidden Valley," it attracts tourists seeking adventure among its icy river and steep cliffs. While the lower sections offer a splashy respite with food and fun, the deeper trails demand caution and hard hats due to their treacherous terrain and occasional flash floods. A guide is often helpful for those venturing further, where the narrow passages and rock scrambles reward the brave with breathtaking views and a sense of triumph as they return to the sunshine.
