Düden Waterfalls is one of the most enchanting natural attractions in Antalya, Turkey, comprised of two main sections: Upper Düden Waterfalls (Yukarı Düden Şelalesi) and Lower Düden Waterfalls (Aşağı Düden Şelalesi). Here's how visitors can reach both sections:
By Car: The Upper Düden Waterfalls are located about 10 km northeast of Antalya city center. Rent a car and drive via Dumlupınar Bulvarı/D400 and follow the signs to the waterfalls.
By Public Transport: Take the city buses from the center of Antalya towards Varsak. You can get off at the Düden Waterfalls stop. The bus line which operates to this area is the VC30 line from the old town (Kaleiçi).
By Taxi: A taxi ride is a convenient option, albeit more expensive. Ensure that the taxi is metered to avoid overcharging.
By Car: Lower Düden Waterfalls are located in the Lara district of Antalya and can be reached via Lara Caddesi. Parking is available near the site.
By Public Transport: City buses LC07 from Antalya city center go directly to Lara and stop near the Lower Düden Waterfalls.
By Taxi: You can also take a taxi directly to the Lower Düden Waterfalls. It's advisable to ensure the taxi is metered.
No matter which mode of transport you choose, both sections of the Düden Waterfalls are well worth the visit. The upper section has a park with picnic areas, and the lower section offers breathtaking views as the water plummets into the Mediterranean Sea.
