Burdur Lake is not very pleasant in terms of its surroundings and water, but Salda Lake, which you will see when you enter Tefenni road and 4 km past Yeşilova, is the most beautiful lake in the region.

Turkey is also the deepest and clearest lake water Salta. As you move 50-60 meters from the shore, the water that does not exceed the knee length suddenly deepens and the bottom becomes unavailable. It is known that the water carried by the streams is absorbed from the sinkholes on the lake floor and turns into groundwater.

It is surrounded by red and black pine forests.

It is known that its water is healing. Magnesium and clayey lake water is good for some skin diseases.

Carp and eel come out. But hunting is prohibited. The surrounding forest is fertile for land hunting.

Salda Lake – The unique view of the lake spreads under the feet when you come from Yeşilova and head towards Eşler Plateau and reach Radar hill. The white beach, which emerges as the waters recede, offers a very harmonious view with the deep blue of the lake. The white image in the sand is the work of magnesium silicate known as meerschaum. This sand, which is used to make fireproof bricks, is unconsciously pulled and destroyed. Pity…

The beach is suitable for swimming. There are Municipality and Forest Beaches for those who want to swim in the lake. Tent can also be set up. Those who want to swim, oh, watch out for eddies.

On the shores of Salda Lake, local and foreign tourists take camel tours.

Around the lake, the ruins of Deynus Castle can be seen at the height of Kayadibi Stone (Kale Hill). There is no data on the history of the castle. More than rural springs and plateaus on Eşeler Mountain offer suitable options for those who want to trek.

The village of Niyazlar, south of Yeşilova, is a flame settlement. You can stop by Niyazi Baba Tomb and the trout breeding farm and recreation areas at the exit of the village.
