The Uçarsu Waterfall, which attracts attention with its wild beauty, gushes from Akdağ, the highest point of the Western Taurus Mountains above Gömbe Plateau in Kaş district.
The water gushing from the 1800-meter height of Akdağ, which is 3024 meters high, flies down the rocks, which are about 50 meters high and have a cave underneath, like a white cloud. The waterfall is called Uçarsu because the water flies and creates impressive views.
The water of the waterfall, which can be seen clearly even from a distance due to the barrenness of the area where it is located, flows through a valley of about 4.5 kilometers to the Çayboğazı Dam in the Gömbe Plain. The water accumulated here gives life to the surrounding areas. The intensity of the water can change throughout the year, especially depending on the melting of the snow on the summit of Akdağ.
Those who want to explore the waterfall, which is reached by a laborious journey, are welcomed by the vast landscape, silence, clean and cool mountain air when they approach the region. Watching the flow of water coming out of the rocks and pouring with enthusiasm gives visitors a different experience.
