The Şawelya Picnic Area, located in the Eğil district of Diyarbakır, is notable for its natural beauty and is situated in an area where the Dicle River flows crystal clear. Here, there is an opportunity for those who want to spend time in nature to camp in tents. However, due to the poor condition of part of the road, it may be more suitable to access it with higher vehicles.
The facility offers visitors the basic necessities. There are a makeshift toilet and water access, as well as bungalow accommodation options. Additionally, there are several gazebos in the picnic area, and wifi access is provided throughout the region. However, visitors are strongly advised to take their trash with them and keep the area clean.
The Şawelya Picnic Area also hosts a wonderful valley for those who love to hike, as it is located right next to the Dicle River. For those looking to discover natural beauty, this area serves as a peaceful getaway. However, it should be noted that the area may be closed, especially during the winter months.
