Deep in the heart of Turkey Kapadokya, ancient volcanic eruptions dispersed thick ash, which solidified into a soft rock—called tuff—tens of metres thick. Wind and water went to work on this plateau creating a fairy tale landscape of cones, pillars, pinnacles, mushrooms, and chimneys. Thousands of years ago, humans took a cue from Mother Nature carved tunnels into the soft rock, and an underground urbanized landscape was created, living at one with nature rather than imposing upon it.
This moderate mountain biking tour is a journey of adventure and discovery, taking to a network of little used dirt roads and not too technical single track MTB trails as it winds its way across the region – including the Ihlara Canyon, Soganli Valley, and the “Fairy Chimney” landscape that stretches from Mustafapasa to Goreme.
Combining the best of remote, wilderness off road adventure biking with plenty of sights, sounds and new experiences along the way. It’s this mix of attractions that makes Cappadocia such a compelling destination and we discover the most captivating highlights, escape the tourist crowds and discover the true character and charm of this magical place and it’s people, by bicycle!
This tour includes a total ascent of 3,567 metres.
Recommended additional activity in Goreme: Discover Cappadocia from a different perspective by hopping on a hot air balloon ride. Enjoy the beautiful scenery while drifting leisurely over the region's fairy chimneys, stunning rock formations and picturesque valleys. Contact us for more information.

My spouse and I wanted to go on a second honeymoon, which we humorously called our "honeymoon in old age." Along the way, we met wonderful, kind-hearted people, saw beautiful places, and enjoyed delicious meals. The hotels were always comfortable and cozy. We were just as happy and excited on the last day of the tour as we were on the first. Thank you so much for everything!
We saw 16 cities that had a lot of history and beauty. Loved the archeological sites of Ephesus and the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia. Our tour director had outstanding knowledge of Turkey and provided continuous commentary over 2 weeks. I would highly recommend this vacation.
