Kırkurgan Canyon is located within the borders of Ula district of Muğla province, close to Gökova Bay. It is a deep and narrow valley system formed as a result of the region's geological structure and tectonic movements. The formation of the canyon is a result of millions of years of erosion and river abrasion processes. Especially in this geography where calcareous rocks are common, the characteristic canyon structure has emerged due to the erosive effect of water. The stream passing through the canyon is an important source of life for the vegetation and wildlife in the region. The name of the canyon is given by the local people and reflects the natural structure of the region. Kırkurgan Canyon offers a suitable environment especially for activities such as nature walks and photography. The natural structure of the region hosts various plant species and wild animals. The areas around the canyon are under the influence of the Mediterranean climate and are covered with maquis vegetation and pine forests. Although there is no definite information about the historical past of the canyon, it is known that the region has hosted settlements since ancient times. However, the canyon itself was not shaped by human hands...
