Whitewater Rafting Tour

About Rafting Tour

Whitewater Rafting is an exhilarating outdoor team sport performed on rushing rapids using specialized inflatable rafts. Guided through the pristine waters of the Köprüçay River within the Köprülü Canyon National Park, this adventure offers the perfect escape from the summer heat with refreshing water temperatures averaging 8-10°C. Our 14 km river run is classified as Grade 1 and 2 (easy to moderate), making it exceptionally safe yet incredibly exciting for participants of all experience levels and ages. Under the leadership of our certified professional guides, you will learn to navigate the waves, paddle in unison, and share an unforgettable adrenaline-fueled journey with friends and family.
