Natural Beauty of the Route The Dalaman River is fed by spring waters, snowmelt, and rainwater, flowing through a magnificent canyon. Along the route, participants encounter crystal clear water, deep valleys, lush pine forests, and waterfall views. The water is said to be so transparent that even the stones on the riverbed are easily visible. During the activity, participants experience natural jacuzzis, cool waterfalls, and various water drops. Occasionally, the boats are deliberately capsized in shallow areas without currents, giving participants the opportunity to swim. These practices are carried out in a completely controlled and safe manner.
