Privé transfer naarSaklıkent Gorge
Wade one of Turkey's deepest canyons — 300 m walls, ice-cold water, and a private Dalaman Airport transfer from €58.
Saklıkent Gorge
Saklıkent Gorge is one of Turkey's deepest canyons — an 18 km slash through the Taurus foothills near Fethiye, with sheer walls rising up to 300 m. Inside the national park, a wooden boardwalk bolted to the cliff carries you over the rushing river; then you cross the ice-cold spring and wade upstream between walls that narrow until you can touch both sides at once. Add natural mud baths and gözleme served on cushioned platforms right over the water, and you have the Fethiye region's most fun half-day out. Getting there is simple: Saklıkent lies about 97 km from Dalaman Airport (DLM), roughly 100 minutes by road, and a private SooTransfer starts at €58 — fixed euro price, meet and greet at arrivals, pay after the ride.

Saklıkent Gorge transfer · FAQ
How much is a transfer from Dalaman Airport to Saklıkent Gorge?
A private one-way transfer from Dalaman Airport (DLM) to Saklıkent Gorge starts at €58 for the roughly 97 km drive, which takes about 100 minutes. The euro price is fixed and quoted up front, your driver meets you at arrivals with a name sign, we track your flight, and you pay after the ride.
Is a private transfer better than a bus, taxi or jeep-safari tour?
Public dolmuş minibuses need a change in Fethiye and stop constantly; airport taxis run on the meter, so the final price is a surprise; jeep-safari tours arrive on a fixed schedule with the midday crowds. A private SooTransfer from €58 is door-to-door on your own timetable — leave early to beat the groups, stay as long as you like, and add stops such as Xanthos or Patara Beach.
Can you swim in Saklıkent Gorge, and how cold is the water?
It's wading rather than swimming — you walk upstream through cold spring water, anywhere from ankle to waist deep depending on the spot and season, between the canyon walls. The water is genuinely icy year-round, and the wading section only opens in summer; in spring the meltwater is far too high and only the boardwalk is accessible.
Is Saklıkent Gorge the same as Saklıkent Ski Resort?
No — they only share a name. Saklıkent Gorge is a canyon national park near Fethiye, served by Dalaman Airport (DLM); Saklıkent Ski Resort is a small winter-sports station in the mountains near Antalya. Make sure your navigation or driver is set for Saklıkent National Park near Fethiye — every SooTransfer booking from DLM goes to the right one.
How long do I need at Saklıkent Gorge?
Plan 2–3 hours for the boardwalk, a wade upstream, the mud bath and a riverside gözleme. With a private wait-and-return transfer it pairs perfectly with the UNESCO ruins of Xanthos and Patara Beach for a full Lycian day out of Fethiye or Ölüdeniz.
