About this place

Saklıkent Gorge

Saklıkent Gorge is an 18-kilometre canyon in the Akdağ mountains near Fethiye, 205 km and 2 hours 58 minutes from Antalya Airport.

Saklıkent Gorge is one of Turkey's deepest canyons, an 18-kilometre cleft cut through the Akdağ mountains where icy meltwater rushes between cliffs rising hundreds of metres overhead. A timber walkway clings to the rock at the entrance before the route continues on foot through the riverbed — a dramatic, cooling escape from the coastal heat.

Lying inland from Fethiye, Saklıkent is a genuine long-haul excursion: 205 km and 2 hours 58 minutes from Antalya Airport, via the coastal D400 and inland through Tlos to the gorge's car park. With no practical public transport link, it's firmly a full-day trip, best paired with Tlos or a riverside lunch.

From the car park, a suspended boardwalk clings to the rock face and leads down to the gorge mouth, where visitors wade across a fast, knee-deep river to continue inside — water shoes are essential, and the current stays cold year-round. Trout restaurants sit on platforms above the river.

Practical information

Trail Difficulty
Moderate: a paved boardwalk gives way to wading through a cold, fast-flowing river.
Time Needed
Plan two to three hours on site for the boardwalk, river and drying off.
What to Bring
Water shoes or old trainers, a change of clothes, and a dry bag.
Seasonal Note
The river runs coldest and fullest during spring meltwater season.

Why MovXtra for your Saklıkent Gorge transfer?

4 key benefits

Benefit 1

Fixed price, no surprises

Your Saklıkent Gorge rate is set at booking and covers the full 205 km run from the airport. No meter, no traffic surcharge, and no hidden extras when you arrive at the gorge.

Benefit 2

Mountain road, confirmed route

Saklıkent lies inland from the Fethiye coast, reached by a long, winding mountain road that climbs into the Akdağ range of the Taurus. We know this route well and confirm the gorge entrance before you depart the airport.

Benefit 3

Licensed and insured

MovXtra is a TÜRSAB-licensed operator (licence no. 16177) — every transfer is insured and regulated, so you have real accountability on the long drive out to the gorge, not just a driver's word.

Benefit 4

Driver at your pickup point, no searching

Your driver waits at the pickup address from your booking — a hotel entrance, a villa gate, or any address in the region. When the trip starts at Antalya Airport, they meet you in the arrivals hall with your name on a sign. Collect your bags, meet your vehicle, and start the near three-hour run out to the gorge straight away.

Private transfer vs. taxi

A taxi to Saklıkent runs on the meter for the full round trip, with the fare climbing on the drive back regardless of what was agreed at the start. A private transfer fixes the price and the return time before you leave the airport.

Planning Your Return Trip

Because Saklıkent is a full day out, your driver and vehicle stay with you rather than leaving and returning. Agree your pickup time and your driver will be waiting at the same spot.
