Dim Çayı Picnic Area
A popular picnic spot along the Dim River with restaurants built on platforms over the cool mountain water.
The Dim River flows about 60 km from the Konya highlands to the Mediterranean, passing through Alanya. Along its banks, especially near the Dim Çayı Mesire Alanı, there are picnic areas with restaurants where you can eat with your feet in the water. The setting is a green canyon with cold, clear water – a refreshing escape from the coastal heat. It's a local favourite for family outings, especially on weekends. Entry is free; you pay only for food or parking.
“Cool off in the mountain river while dining at waterside platforms.”
Come during the week or early morning on weekends to avoid crowds and get a good platform table.
The riverside platforms involve steps; some areas may be uneven. Not fully wheelchair accessible.
