Köprülü Kanyon is a valley of Köprüçay which is suitable for rafting, which started in the Sütçüler district of Isparta and spilled in Antalya.

At the beginning of the rafting zone, there are two historic bridges, one by the small master and the big bridge by the master. Köprülü Canyon is also named for these bridges.

In the summer months, this clean river water, which provides 7,000 rafting opportunities a day, can be easily drunk from its source. The natural beauty of the region is an important part of being a good summer resort. For this reason, the canyon is also a touristic place at the same time.

The beginning of Köprülü Canyon is the Kasımlar town located in the south-east of Isparta. The main source of the river is the water coming from the river which is the city of Ispartan and the Karacahisar village from Isparta. The canyon consists of narrow valleys about 25 km from November to the village of Değirmenözü of Antalyan. In this part, especially when the water rises, it is difficult to walk. But in the summer months, you can go on foot. After the village of Değirmenözü the river flows into the open area. The river then enters the narrow valleys again. This second section continues until the Köprülü Canyon Ancient Bridge. Again in this section there are hard passes and natural beauties in steep valleys. In the vicinity of the river, Köprülü Kanyon National Park was established in 1973 with a size of 36,614 ha.
