ATV Riding in Antalya: Taurus Mountain Off-Road Adventure

Operate your own quad through mountain forest and stream beds, then break to photograph the Taurus foothills.

ATV riding in Antalya puts you on your own quad bike for over 2.5 hours of off-road riding through the Taurus Mountains' forested slopes, muddy terrain and mountain streams. Hotel pickup and drop-off from Antalya, Side, Alanya or Kemer is included. A professional guide briefs you on the automatic quad, you do a test ride, then ride approximately 20 km with breaks for photos and rest. No prior experience or driving license is required. Children under 17 can ride as a passenger behind a parent on the same quad.

The experience

You don't need to have ridden before. The quads are automatic with hand or foot controls for gas and brake, and a professional guide walks you through the basics at the station before you start. After a test ride to get comfortable, the actual riding begins on the muddy, off-road slopes of the Taurus Mountains, where pine forest and deep valleys make up the terrain. The route covers roughly 20 km and takes about 2 hours of actual riding time, with built-in breaks so you can catch your breath, drink water and take photos of the landscape.

Hotel pickup happens from Antalya, Side, Alanya or Kemer, and you're driven to the quad safari station next to a small river on forested, off-road territory. The guide and instructor handle safety: helmets are provided and they stay with the group throughout. You can ride solo on your own quad or share one with another person. Kids under 17 sit as a passenger behind a parent. The whole experience, from pickup to drop-off back at your hotel, takes about 3.5 hours.

Souvenir photos and a DVD of the ride are available to purchase separately. The activity is physically demanding. You need at least moderate fitness, and it's not suitable for anyone with spinal injuries, poor cardiovascular health or pregnancy.
