Zamantı Valley

The length of the Zamantı river within
the borders of the district is 50 km.
The area between Yeşilköy village and
Büyükçakır village is a unique place for
rafting. It has been stated that there are
various tracks on Zamantı river, difficulty
level ranging from 4,5 and 6.
Plus, there is a 10 km trekking area surrounded
by high rocks within Zamantı
valley. At least fifteen flowing waterfalls
are formed from the banks of the river
in April and May but later they dry
out.
In an outdoor, sports, adventure and
hobby magazine, an article about
Zamantı valley was published. There,
it was written “we are five adventurists
on an untouched, sometimes calm and
sometimes rough Zamantı river…a
brand new chance for rafting. We feel
like we are not only rafting but also
walking around in Sadabad (a special
place of entertainment among trees
and flowers in ancient Ottoman Empire).”
They wanted to emphasize the
convenience of the Zamantı valley for
rafting.
