Born from the cool slopes of the Taurus Mountains and
bringing life to Alanya, the Dim River is one of the region’s most
popular recreational areas with its natural beauty, icy waters, and unique
picnic spots. Located just 15 minutes from the city center, the Dim River is
the perfect escape for those seeking relief from the summer heat. Restaurants
along the river, floating platforms, natural pools, and shaded areas offer an
ideal setting for families, groups of friends, and nature lovers.
Another natural wonder that visitors to the Dim River should
not miss is Dim Cave, one of the largest and most impressive caves in
the region. Situated on Cebel-i Reis Mountain at an elevation of 232 meters,
this majestic cave offers a mesmerizing underground journey, shaped over
approximately one million years.
Along the 360-meter walking path, giant stalactites,
stalagmites, and mineral formations create an atmosphere that feels like
stepping into another world. The natural humidity and clean air inside Dim Cave
provide a soothing environment, especially beneficial for the respiratory
system. At the end of the cave, a small lake stands as one of the most
captivating highlights.
Both the Dim River and Dim Cave are exceptional destinations
for those who want to spend a cool, peaceful, and unforgettable day in nature.
For anyone wishing to discover Alanya’s hidden beauty and escape the city’s
hustle, this area is a must-visit.
If you want to experience the freshness and mystery of
nature in Alanya, Dim River and Dim Cave await you.
