Entry 06 Getting there
How to get to Tazı Canyon, and can you go without a car?
Without a car
A transfer solves the awkward part, which is the final climb and getting back down afterwards. The regular tours collect from five areas along the coast, so a hotel in Kemer or Alanya is not a barrier, though the days on offer differ.
Taxis are possible in principle, but you would need to agree the wait and the return in advance. We have no fare or route on record, so check it with the driver before you set off.
Driving yourself
Published descriptions agree on the sequence: paved road up the river valley as far as the rafting centres, then a narrower road, and a dirt surface from the parking area onward. Traffic can be tight on a road of that width, and a small car needs care over loose ground.
Before you commit, ask your rental company what its contract says about unpaved roads. Then read the comparison of going alone and going with a guide.
The last stretch on foot
Every route finishes with a walk over uneven ground to the viewpoint. Sources measure it differently because they start from different parking spots, so we will not quote a figure. It is a walk, not a hike, but it is not a paved promenade either. Shoes matter, as the packing list explains.
Getting picked up in restricted areas
Vehicles cannot always reach the door in old town streets. Guests staying in Kaleiçi in Antalya may be given a nearby meeting point instead of a hotel pickup.
Common questions
Can I reach Tazı Canyon by public transport?
We could not confirm a public service to the viewpoint, so we do not suggest relying on one.
Can a normal car drive to the viewpoint?
The final part is narrow and then unsurfaced, and the exact end point depends on where you may park. Drive slowly, and check your rental terms first.
