Monster Green Canyon Safari
Description
Get ready for an exciting journey to one of the most amazing places in Turkey - the Green Canyon , which will give you unforgettable impressions. This is not just a mountain gorge, but an artificially created reservoir located in the picturesque valley of the Taurus Mountains, between Alanya and Antalya.
The Green Canyon is the largest artificial reservoir in Turkey. Its history dates back to ancient times: once there was a bend of the Manavgat River and several mountain lakes used by the Romans to replenish water supplies. However, in the late 80s, a dam complex was built, and a reservoir appeared in this valley, which has now become one of the main natural attractions of the region.
A distinctive feature of this place is the emerald hue of the water , which is the result of the high iron content. The slopes of the canyon are covered with dense vegetation, creating a unique landscape where you can find lush orange and olive groves, as well as exotic plants such as pomegranate trees and giant cacti. These natural beauties are the perfect place for walks and photo shoots!
The water temperature in the lake never exceeds +12 °C , which makes it ideal for refreshing swims on hot days. In summer, it is always cool here, and you can enjoy active recreation, as well as beautiful views. Depending on the season, you can watch the blossoming of tangerines, almonds and other fruit trees. On the high cliffs, you can find eagle nests, which will make your trip even more unique.
Green Lake and its surroundings are not just a place to relax, but a real pearl of nature, where you can not only enjoy the beauty, but also spend time with family or friends, enjoying moments of peace and tranquility.
Don't miss your chance to see the amazing Green Canyon with Turway Travel - your guide to the world of Turkish nature!
