Düden Waterfalls

Düden Şelaleleri (Aşağı ve Yukarı Düden)

Antalya's river falls twice: once in a shady park in the northern suburbs, and again straight off the coastal cliffs into the sea.

What to see

Upper Düden is a green park where the river drops into a pool, with a path running behind the curtain of water. Lower Düden, at Lara, is the dramatic one: the river plunges over the cliff edge into the Mediterranean.

Each park needs 30 to 60 minutes. The best view of the lower falls is from the sea, on the boat trips that leave Kaleiçi harbour.

Spring, when the river is full, is the finest time. In summer, visit the upper falls in the morning before the picnic crowds.

Getting there

Lower Düden is on the coast road east of the centre towards Lara; Upper Düden is about 10 km north-east of the centre in Kepez. City buses serve both; route numbers were not checked with the operator.

Transport lines are general directions, not checked against the operator's timetable.

How we rank: Nearby Ministry-licensed places first (matched to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism list), then other places by distance band (within 5 km, 15 km, 40 km; straight line) and public map ratings and review counts. A licensed place never jumps ahead of a closer band. Places more than 25 km away in another town are shown only when there are few options nearby. No business pays to be listed. A high score from a handful of reviews counts for less than a slightly lower score from hundreds. Ratings and counts come from ilçemde's data (source shown on each card, checked 1 Oct 2026); read the reviews themselves on the map services.

Accommodation lists open on ilçemde, our sister directory of Turkish businesses (new tab). We do not take bookings or commissions.
