Amazing alot of adventure

The place is spectacular with the surrounding nature... but its neglected... needs a lot of care and cleaning .. the road leading to the place is so bad .. needs a big effort from the local government... I hope to visit that place and it's much more better than before ... but now I'm sorry to give it just 2 stars ... its has putintaiols

A beautiful way to spend the day. Entrance fee is 15TL, Tent Camping is 30TL, Vehicle Camping is 35TL per day (August 2018). There's a picnic area by the main entrance. We chose to drive the somewhat dangerous road closer to the falls. Please be advised, the only road (from inside the park's main entrance) is not for inexperienced drivers. Once you've successfully passed the park's harrowing road, you'll see a small building on your right with rooms for rent and an attached restaurant. Directly to your left is where you'll find the "upper hike" which takes you through the cliff side and offers a view of the falls from above. If you drive down the short slope, you'll have to choose between left and right. There's picnic tables set by the stream. These tables cost 10TL per day. The WC in this area is 1TL. Also to your left, is where you'll trek through water, rocks, and "natural" walkways to get to the falls. If you're in the area, this park really is a must see - at least once. FYI: Wear a good pair of sneakers or hiking boots, bring a change of clothes, small children must be carried most/all the way to and from the falls. Easiest path with small kids is from below and through the water. Charcoal, for bbq, is usually cheapest at Şok in Karasu.

Very interesting place with the sound of water all around you, the seen of the waterfall at the end worth looking at , but you have to walk a long way to reach it through narrow roads and even through the water , so better bring special shoes or just take your shoes off when going through the water ( as i did) , on the way back the road get more narrower and slippy ( so for people who don't walk allot or not sporty i don't think it will suit them ) , as i said very narrow roads and hiking at the end i think people who love adventure will like it , It took us nearly 4 hours to get in there & get back to our car for me

A great place for camping and even for family meetings. There is a river over there and also is a good place for climbing challanges

Another amazing camping site. Great hiking area where you get to walk through caves that are part of the mine river.

This should be a 5⭐ review, but the belediye (local council) have done nothing to make it into a welcoming tourist attraction. Shame. Come prepared with strong terlik (shoes) for walking a long way though the river.
