TOUR DETAILS:
Cappadocia, with it’s unreal rock formations, cave dwellings and “fairy chinmeys” is undeniably one of Turkey’s most captivating, unique and unmissable areas and a perfect destination for a road cycling tour. This trip links Cappadocia with the nearby Crimson mountains (Aladaglar in Turkish)- a jagged alpine range of limestone peaks surrounded beautiful forests, canyons and waterfalls.
Designed for keen riders with a good level of fitness, the tour includes some long days but the effort in is more than rewarded! We get the most from the tour by using minibus transfers to cut out any unsuitable areas leaving a tour jam packed with highlights and offering first class riding throughout.
Note: this tour is also available on a self guided basis- fully vehicle supported but without a guide- so you can go at your own pace and eat in the restaurants you choose. Contact us for info and prices.
