Holta Canyon
At Holta Canyon, travelers will enjoy the main highlight of the tour by walking inside the canyon for more than 1 hour, surrounded by dramatic rock formations and breathtaking natural scenery. The canyon water is very cold and refreshing, while in some sections there are natural thermal water spots where the water is noticeably warmer, ideal for swimming. For this reason, it’s recommended to bring swimwear. Guests should also bring extra clothes to change before entering the water and again afterward for comfort.
