General İnformation About The World's Highest Zipline and Rafting in Side

Overview of the Adventure
Nestled in the Taurus Mountains near Side, Turkey, this full-day adventure tour (set in the stunning Köprülü Canyon National Park) combines three thrilling experiences into one. You’ll journey off-road to the breathtaking Tazı Canyon, soar across the sky on the world’s highest zipline, and conquer the rapids of the Köprülü Canyon River – all in a single, unforgettable day. The Side rafting and zipline combo tour offers an adrenaline rush at every turn, balanced with stunning natural beauty and a touch of local culture. The national park’s dramatic landscapes and clear river provide a perfect backdrop for this day of adventure. From hotel pickup to drop-off, every detail is handled, so you can fully immerse yourself in the excitement without any hassle or worry. It’s also a great value – instead of arranging separate trips for a safari, a rafting tour, and a zipline ride, this combo packs all three into one seamless adventure.
Tazı Canyon – The Valley of Wisdom
Tazı Canyon (also known as “Eagle Canyon” or the “Valley of Wisdom”) is a hidden gem of Antalya’s inland region, now a must-visit spot for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Sheer cliffs rising between 200 and 400 meters create a dramatic gorge carved by the Köprüçay River over millennia. At the canyon’s edge, you’ll stand in awe of panoramic views – lush pine forests blanketing the canyon floor, the ribbon of river far below, and the expansive sky above. This tour takes you right to this breathtaking viewpoint. It’s the perfect place to snap incredible photos and feel the immensity of nature before your adrenaline-packed zipline ride. With a bit of luck, you might even spot eagles or hawks circling on thermal winds, embodying the canyon’s wild spirit. Interestingly, this scenic canyon remained a well-kept secret until recent years – once known only to local villagers and a few adventurous explorers. As stunning photographs of Tazı Canyon spread on social media, its fame grew. Even so, it still feels pristine and uncrowded when you arrive, especially early in the day, allowing you to enjoy the tranquil beauty in peace. Tazı Canyon’s serene grandeur provides a striking contrast to the excitement that follows, making your experience both picturesque and heart-pounding.
Fly on the World’s Highest Zipline
Prepare for an unmatched adrenaline rush as you clip in for the zipline at Tazı Canyon – officially the world’s highest and Europe’s longest zipline. When you step off the platform, you’ll be suspended a staggering 410 meters (1,345 feet) above the canyon floor. Feel the exhilaration as you accelerate up to 130 km/h (80 mph), gliding along the steel cable for an incredible 1.96 kilometers (1.22 miles) from end to end. That’s nearly two full kilometers of pure flight, lasting over a minute of air time! Three parallel zip lines allow friends and family to soar side by side, sharing the thrill together. As you zip across the canyon, take in a bird’s-eye view of the rugged cliffs and winding river beneath you – a perspective few ever get to witness. It’s a record-setter you can brag about: higher off the ground than any other zipline on the planet! Safety is paramount: before the jump, experienced instructors provide a thorough briefing, secure your harness and gear, and double-check all equipment. The facility is built and maintained to international safety standards (EN 15567-1/2 certification and regular inspections) to ensure you can enjoy the ride with peace of mind. Whether you’re an extreme sports enthusiast or facing a personal fear of heights, this exhilarating zipline in Side will be the highlight of your trip – a scream-inducing, heart-pounding flight that leaves you grinning from ear to ear. Once you reach the far side of the canyon, the crew will help you safely down from the harness. A short transfer (by vehicle or on foot via a scenic path) brings you back to the starting area, giving you a moment to catch your breath and celebrate your accomplishment.
Jeep Safari through the Köprülü Canyon
The adventure begins with a scenic journey from Side in a sturdy open-top 4x4 jeep. Hold on tight as your driver navigates narrow mountain roads and bumpy dirt tracks leading up to Tazı Canyon. This is no ordinary transfer – it’s a fun-filled jeep safari in its own right! Along the way, you’ll splash through shallow streams, rumble over rocky paths, and traverse pine-scented forests within Köprülü Canyon National Park – a protected wilderness known for its rich flora and fauna. Don’t be surprised when an impromptu water fight breaks out between jeeps – water blasters are often provided, turning the ride into a moving water battle that’s especially refreshing on hot summer days. As you climb higher into the mountains, the air becomes cooler and fresher. You’ll pass through small rural villages and catch glimpses of local life – perhaps children waving as you drive by or farmers tending goats on the hillside. In these remote highlands, wildlife is often nearby too – you might spot a mountain goat balancing on a distant cliff or a tortoise slowly crossing the trail. In the distance, you might spot hints of ancient history, like portions of a Roman aqueduct or the outline of the old city of Selge perched in the mountains, reminders of the rich heritage of this region. There will be stops at scenic points for photos, where you can capture the stunning backdrop of rugged hills and deep valleys. Be prepared to get a bit dusty on this off-road escapade – it’s all part of the fun! By the time you reach the canyon, you might be slightly wet and dusty from the journey, but definitely exhilarated and ready for the next thrill.
Rafting on the Köprüçay River
After conquering the skies, it’s time to hit the water. You’ll ride back down through the canyon to the riverside base, where the next activity begins: white-water rafting on the Köprüçay River. You’ll gear up with life jackets, helmets, and paddles (all provided and fitted by our professional guides) for a thrilling journey down the river’s 14 km rafting course. Following a safety briefing and paddle practice session, you’ll board sturdy inflatable rafts (usually 8-10 people per boat plus a guide) and set off into the current. The river starts off gentle, giving you a chance to get used to paddling as a team. Soon, you’ll encounter a series of rapids ranging from easy Class II to exciting Class III, which will have everyone cheering and working together to navigate the waves. Expect plenty of splashes as you ride through foamy white-water, interspersed with calm stretches where you can float and enjoy the cool, turquoise water. The surrounding canyon walls tower above you as you paddle, creating the surreal feeling of rafting through a natural cathedral of rock and greenery. Keep an eye out for trout fish darting in the crystal-clear water below – Köprüçay’s clean waters are teeming with fish, and you might spot them when the sun beams through the river.
Halfway through the rafting, we take a break so you can rest, swim in the river’s refreshing pools, or simply bask in the sun on the riverbank. This pause often takes place by a gorgeous spot under an ancient Roman stone bridge – the Oluk Bridge – which arches impressively over the canyon. It’s a perfect backdrop for photos, with the historic bridge and cascading mini-waterfalls creating an idyllic scene. Adventurous souls can even take a jump from a safe spot into the crisp river under the guide’s supervision, adding an extra jolt of excitement. After the break, the adventure continues with the second leg of rafting, tackling a few more rapids before the river calms near the end point. In total, you’ll spend about 2.5 hours on the water. No prior experience is needed; even if it’s your first time rafting, our expert rafting guides are there to steer and assist, ensuring a fun and safe experience for all. By the end of the route, you’ll likely be pleasantly tired and full of stories to tell.
Comfort, Safety & Local Flavor
One of the best parts of this combo tour is that everything is arranged for you – bringing you comfort and peace of mind alongside the thrills. From the moment you are picked up at your Side hotel in the morning until you return in the evening, you’re in good hands. All the necessary gear for ziplining and rafting is included, so you won’t have to worry about renting or bringing heavy equipment. Professional instructors and guides accompany you in each activity: a skilled driver/guide during the jeep safari, certified zipline operators at the canyon, and licensed rafting guides on the river. They’ll provide safety briefings, instructions, and tips to make sure you have both an exciting and secure adventure. We take safety seriously: the zipline setup is inspected regularly and adheres to international standards, and all rafts and gear are well-maintained. The tour also includes insurance coverage for the day’s activities.
When it’s time for lunch, you’ll stop at a scenic spot (often a riverside restaurant or picnic area by the rafting base) to recharge with a hearty meal. Typical lunch menus feature grilled chicken or fish, rice or pasta, and fresh salads – providing the energy you need for the rest of the day. Vegetarian options are usually available upon request. As you dine, you can soak in the natural surroundings and swap stories with fellow adventurers, enjoying a taste of Turkish hospitality and local flavors. By the tour’s end, you’ll likely have made a few new friends along the way!
We recommend wearing your swimsuit under comfortable clothes and shoes that can get wet (sport sandals or water shoes are ideal). If you don’t have water shoes, you can purchase a pair at the rafting base before setting off. Secure lockers or a safe area will be available to store your dry clothes, towels, and any valuables during the activities, so you can enjoy each part of the tour hands-free and without worries.
Who Can Join? This tour is designed for anyone with a sense of adventure. You don’t need any previous experience in rafting or ziplining – just a willingness to have fun. Families are welcome; kids as young as 6 can typically participate in rafting (with parental supervision in the raft), while the zipline has a minimum weight requirement (around 30 kg/66 lbs, often translating to roughly age 8-10 minimum for kids depending on their size). Participants under 18 will need a parent or guardian’s consent. The maximum weight for the zipline is about 120 kg (265 lbs) for safety. If someone in your group prefers not to do the zipline, they can watch from the viewing area and still enjoy the canyon’s beauty and cheer others on. Non-swimmers can join the rafting portion too, as long as they inform guides – life jackets will keep everyone afloat, and the guides will ensure a safe ride. However, this tour is not recommended for pregnant women or those with serious heart, back, or mobility issues, given the physically active nature of the activities. Overall, if you are in reasonable health and ready for excitement, you’re good to go! The tour operates in the warmer months of the year (usually spring through autumn). On summer days, the canyon can be hot around midday, but you’ll be cooled off by the river splashes. In spring and fall, the weather is milder and the landscapes are especially vibrant, making it a great adventure in any of these seasons.
