You have already decided to raft the Koprucay, so here is the natural upgrade: adding a zipline flight high above Koprulu Canyon to the very same day. It is the easiest way to double the thrills without a second transfer.
Why pair rafting with a zipline
Rafting shows you Koprulu Canyon from the river, splashing through grade II-III rapids on a family-friendly ~14 km run. A zipline flips the view completely, sending you gliding over the gorge with the pine forest and turquoise water rushing beneath your feet. One experience is wet and rhythmic; the other is a sharp, weightless rush. Together they give you the canyon from two totally different angles in a single visit.
Because both take place in and around Koprulu Canyon National Park near Beskonak, around one hour inland from the Side-Manavgat coast, there is no need to travel back and forth. You get one free hotel pickup, one journey, and two adventures. That is exactly why our combo day-tours are the best value we offer.
What the Koprulu Canyon zipline is like
The zipline is a fast, secure cable ride strung across the canyon. You are clipped into a full harness by the on-site team, given a safety briefing, and then launched off the platform to fly over the river valley. The crossing lasts less than a minute but the view stays with you far longer, and you land on the far side buzzing.
It is a superb photo moment and a real burst of adrenaline, yet it demands no technique at all. You do not steer, pedal or paddle; the cable does the work while you simply hold on and enjoy the ride. For most people it feels more exhilarating than frightening.
How it fits the rafting schedule
The day works on a single, well-planned loop. After a morning hotel pickup you head inland to the canyon, and the two activities are slotted one after the other, usually rafting first and the zipline as the high-flying finale, or the reverse depending on the day's timing. You are back at your hotel in the late afternoon or early evening.
Between the water and the flight there is time to dry off, grab lunch by the river and catch your breath. The zipline itself is quick, so it adds a memorable highlight to your day without stretching it into something exhausting.
Who should add the zipline
The zipline is a brilliant add-on for anyone who wants a bit more punch than rafting alone. If you love a view, chase good photos, or simply want to say you flew across a Turkish canyon, this is for you.
- Thrill-seekers who find rafting fun but want an extra shot of adrenaline.
- Couples and friends after a standout shared memory and dramatic photos.
- Active families keen to pack two experiences into one outing.
- First-time zipliners, since no skill or experience is required.
Ziplines carry sensible age, weight and health limits, so if you are travelling with young children, are pregnant, or have a back, heart or mobility condition, please confirm the current requirements with us before booking. We would rather give you an honest answer than a surprise on the day.
Rafting plus zipline, or go bigger
The rafting-and-zipline pairing is one of several combinations we run. If you want even more from your day, the same free transfer can add a quad or buggy safari, and our 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 packages stack rafting, zipline and off-road driving together. It is worth comparing the options before you choose.
A combo is always cheaper than booking each activity separately, because you share one transfer and one organised day. We never quote fixed figures here; the live price on the booking page is always the accurate one. Browse the full range on our tours page or jump straight to the packages.
