A cool valley between Sason and Kulp with small waterfalls and plane trees, reached by driving to a certain point and walking about 7 km.

Safety warning

Check transport and security conditions in the area with the local authorities (governorship/district governorate, gendarmerie) before visiting. The walk is long and involves water crossings; plan suitable shoes, enough water and a return in daylight.

Its story

Zore Valley (Zore Canyon) stretches through the mountainous area between Batman's Sason district and Diyarbakır's Kulp district. The valley can be reached by vehicle up to a certain point, and the remaining roughly 7 kilometers are covered on foot; along the way it may be necessary to wade through some pools of water. Visitors rest around the small waterfalls and go into the water, and picnic in the shade of plane trees said to be 100-200 years old. Drawing hundreds of people from Batman, Diyarbakır and Siirt, especially on hot summer days and at weekends, the valley also attracts hikers with its lush green appearance in spring.
