Günpınar Waterfall, Natural cascade in Darende, Turkey

The Günpınar Waterfall descends in three distinct steps, with the first drop measuring 13 meters, followed by a 4-meter fall, and concluding with an 8-meter descent.

The waterfall originally carried the name Aşudu Waterfall, derived from the adjacent village, before changing to Gürpınar and subsequently evolving into its current name, Günpınar.

The waterfall area functions as a gathering place where local residents and visitors engage in traditional Turkish picnics amid the natural environment.

Visitors can reach the waterfall via a 5-kilometer asphalt road that branches from the main E24 Kayseri-Malatya route, with directional signs marking the path.

The waterfall forms from the Şuhul Stream, which travels through a 2-kilometer canyon measuring 60 meters in height before creating this three-tiered cascade.
