Wildlife
History
The Taurus Mountains have been a natural barrier and trade corridor for millennia; the area around Alanya shows layers of agricultural adaptation from terraces to citrus cultivation.
Conservation
Stay on designated tracks, avoid disturbing riverbanks and local orchards, and pack out all waste; the Dimçay riparian zone supports sensitive wildlife and relies on low-impact visitation.
