Cehennem Deresi Canyon

The canyon stretches for 2.5 kilometers with vertical walls reaching 200 meters in height and maintaining a width of 70 meters throughout its length.

The continuous erosion by powerful rivers and streams from the North-Eastern Plateau has carved this deep canyon through mountain formations over geological time.

The name Cehennem Deresi translates to Hell's Creek, reflecting the local perception of the canyon's imposing depth and steep rock formations.

Visitors can access the canyon by flying to Trabzon or Erzurum airports, followed by a three-hour bus journey to Artvin and a 30-minute drive.

An 80-meter glass-floor bridge with a width of 2.50 meters is under construction to connect the two sides of the canyon.
