Kurşunlu Waterfall
A forest nature park with a waterfall, turquoise pools and walking paths, around 35 minutes from the centre.
Kurşunlu Waterfall lies in a protected nature park in the Aksu district, where a tributary of the Aksu river falls into a green pool surrounded by forest. Stepped paths follow the stream past smaller cascades and pools.
Quieter than Düden, it suits nature-oriented guests and photographers and can be added to a Perge visit, which lies on the same side of the city.
- →There are many steps down to the falls — not ideal for guests with limited mobility.
- →Combine with Perge for a half-day east of the city.
