Kurşunlu Waterfall

A watery fairy tale where seven separate ponds converge, offering a haven of peace with its emerald-green landscape and hidden trails.

Away from the noise of Antalya, Kurşunlu Waterfall is a hidden paradise and a unique recreational area where nature displays its full spectrum of colors. The main waterfall, cascading from a height of 18 meters, marks the beginning of a mesmerizing water chain formed by seven interconnected small ponds. Walking paths adorned with plant tunnels, centuries-old plane trees, and climbing vines take visitors on a fairy-tale journey, while the soothing sound of water flowing over rocks offers a natural therapy that rejuvenates the soul. This ecosystem, located near Belek, serves as a living biotope, hosting numerous species from freshwater turtles to wild ducks. BETUYAB, committed to preserving the region’s natural heritage, supports every initiative aimed at protecting delicate water resources like Kurşunlu and maintaining the rich flora-fauna balance within a framework of sustainable tourism. With picnic areas, observation terraces, and a historic water mill that links the past to the present, Kurşunlu Waterfall transforms with each season, offering guests the opportunity to breathe in the heart of nature. When the cool mist touches your face, you will once again discover that the Mediterranean is not only about the sea, but also hides treasures deep within its forests.
