Beautiful location and only 8tl entrance fee. We didn’t have a guide and managed fine. It would be really difficult though for people with mobility issues or small children. Can’t believe that we saw so many people clambering over the rocks and into fast flowing water while carrying babies!! Or people attempting to walk through fast flowing water and over slippery rocks wearing 3” heels (not joking!),

The gorge is beautiful and worth seeing. It’s just such a shame they don’t limit the entrance numbers. There’s no health and safety to speak of and we didn’t see any facilities for first aid.

The cafe inside the gorge is self service and tea/coffee/cold drinks are available at ok prices. Be prepared to be sitting next to chain smokers though, nobody seems to care less about passive smoking!! By the time we left I felt like I’d passively smoked 200 cigarettes!! So much for the fresh mountain air!

We’ve been to the gorge on the weekend and it is so crowded it seems unsafe. It’s worth visiting during the week and going earlier. Rubber beach shoes are a must and can be hired inside the gorge for 5tl or new pairs can be bought for 20tl. We bought ours as £3 seemed a small price to pay to avoid verrucas or fungal nail!

All in all, the gorge is worth a visit

It is initially a little chaotic and the first feel of the icy mountain water is a shock but continue through the gorge and it calms down.
It is worth agreeing a price for the help of a local guide and either buy or hire wet grippy footwear.
It would probably not pass Uk H&S risk assessments but that is part of the fun.
Certainly need a bit of fitness and not for the less mobile.
Try to park your car under shade and if you want to make a full day, try rafting or paddling a ring down stream

Not too strenuous and fun for a half day, we took the Ottogar / Dolmus bus from Kalkan, cheapest way, but check first on schedule

You can taxi as well if you want. No need for guides or to book with anyone, just show up pay and do it on your own. Now about payment, no credit cards and no Euro taken. Go with Turkish Lira, July 2019 is was 8tl for adults and 4tl students/ kids, very affordable. Also, take water shoes, water socks, decent sandals you do not mind getting wet. You will only be in water up to you mid thigh, depending on your height. No gad checks, so waterproof bags are a good idea for phones, etc, there are merchants selling waterproof pouches to wear around your neck if you wish, many people were buying them. We used common plastic bags and my back pack and had no issues. Rental shoes are available and also for purchase, 4tl to buy and 3tl to rent. Food and drinks available decent enough selection, no need to pack a lunch, we were there for four hours due to bus schedule and that was enough time certainly if you are walking in all the way. About one hour travel time by bus each way via Kalkan. We were caught without lira for the day and managed to find someone to convert euros with. Also did not notice the pay as you go, literally at the Ottogar washroom, guy not impressed I had no lira and both myself and daughter really had to go, skipped out and pretty sure was being cursed at in a Turkish. We know better now. Last note the cold part in the water is very short and worth it, about 50m, after that the water temp is very tolerable.

We walked about a mile into the Canyon and the further we went the fewer people there were so we took some great photos. It is quite easy going if you have the right footwear and well worth the effort the further in you go. Thoroughly enjoyed that experience but the area around the entrance is spoiled by too many people trying to sell you activities or food/ drink etc which is why this hasn't received a 5th star.
