Sapadere Kanyonu

We (me & my husband) took a taxi to visit here. It costed about 150TRL. No time limits, and he tried to tell us nice stories about everyplace we visited. Our maingoal was this Sapadere canyon, but he took us to this old watermill too and this old silkfactory. We also had a chance to visit a mosque.
Sapadere canyon is nice and relaxing place. It's a little bit cooler there, 'cause of the running water. And it sure is worthwhile to swim in this river! I did it and wow, it was really great! I think the easiest place to swim is where the first steps go down, but I recommend that you visit the end of the canyon first and on the way back you take a swim.
Entrance fee was 4TL/ person, at the beginning there is a 'restaurant' where you can buy some food if you like. We didn't stop there. Instead we stopped on the place that was somewhere along this canyon and had something to drink, and used the WC that was up the stairs.

We drove here in a hire car, easy journey through lovely scenery,, though many people seemed to arrive on a jeep safari. The canyon is very pretty, hugely photogenic and an easy walk on the flat along boardwalks through the canyon past waterfalls etc. No problem with kids or those with mobility issues. Some of the places were marked as swimming hole with the depth given though we only saw one person swimming in October!. Stopping for lots of photos, the return walk takes 1-2 hours, Along the boardwalk there is a small cafe where you can get drinks, the tea and coffee made on a strange ethnic wood burning contraption (see photo). There is a cafe serving food and drinks and toilet near the car park and (on the day we were there) a few stalls selling craft items. There was a small entrance fee Well worth a visit..
