Alanya White Water Rafting Adventure in Köprülü Canyon

Among the most dynamic Alanya excursions, this full tour takes you far beyond the coast into the heart of Turkey, where fast moving waters, steep canyon walls, and pine forests shape a raw outdoor experience. You get to travel from Alanya toward Köprülü Canyon National Park near Antalya, meet professional tour guide teams, gear up, and launch directly into the river. The boat trip follows the Köprüçay River through towering cliffs, mixing adrenaline charged rapids with calmer stretches where swimming is possible. Unlike many Alanya tours, this tour balances excitement and accessibility, welcoming beginners while still feeling thrilling. A riverside lunch rounds out the day, making this one of the most rewarding excursions for travelers seeking real outdoor activities beyond the beach.
