Cappadocia: Journey through Earth and Sky

Motorcycle trip in Turkey

9 steps - 932 miles
1/9 • Kayseri
Arrival in Kayseri depending on your flight schedule. Transfer to the hotel. Night in a standard troglodyte and stone hotel room in an exclusive boutique hotel located in the center of Göreme National Park.
2/9 • Kayseri - Çamardı
Wake up to the first rays of the sun and enjoy breathtaking views from our hotel of hot air balloons rising among the fairy chimneys of Göreme National Park. An irresistible invitation to explore this lunar landscape more closely, taking trails nestled between these unique rock formations. After this fascinating introduction, the day continues on picturesque roads, passing through troglodyte villages little frequented by tourists, before visiting a monastery carved entirely out of the rock. We end this day with an ascent to the gates of the Anti-Taurus mountains, where we spend the night in total immersion in nature.
109 miles, including 22 miles off-road
3/9 • Çamardı - Kapuzbaşı
This stage takes you into the mountains, where you will start with spectacular views of the highest peaks of the Anti-Taurus, peaking at 3750 m. You will quickly gain altitude to venture into this natural and wooded area, taking steep trails and tight turns. As you progress, you will discover wild and sparsely populated nature, before ending this day in style with a visit to the Kapuzbaşı waterfalls. Made up of seven waterfalls among the highest in Türkiye, they are fed by the waters of the surrounding snow-capped peaks.
98 miles, including 36 miles off-road
4/9 • Kapuzbaşı - Döngele
Waking up to the soothing sound of the river flowing below your hotel prepares you for a new day full of adventures. The Anti-Taurus Mountains still have many surprises to offer you. You'll take a mix of small mountain roads and trails, passing waterfalls, picturesque mountain villages and larger towns, all in an almost frozen-in-time atmosphere. To end this day in style, a nice surprise awaits you: a spa and thermal waters within your hotel. What more could you ask for?
128 miles, including 20 miles off-road
5/9 • Döngele - Malatya
It's time to say goodbye to the enchanted mountains to reach the central plain, while remaining in the Cappadocian highlands, at around 1000 m above sea level. On these small secondary roads running alongside several natural lakes, the landscape transforms radically. The wooded mountains that you leave behind give way to a more arid and mineral setting, typical of the region. You thus reach Malatya, formerly Mitiene, which was historically the capital of the easternmost province of the ancient kingdom of Cappadocia.
168 miles, including 19 miles off-road
6/9 • Malatya - Kemaliye
Malatya, in addition to being the capital of the Roman province of Armenia, has a history of more than 5000 years, and remains are still there to bear witness to it. You will then cross the mythical Euphrates river by boat, the same one which crossed the Garden of Eden according to the Bible. You will follow it for a large part of the day, on the other side of the bank, where asphalt roads and apricot plantations gradually give way to rolling tracks, in an arid and deserted landscape. You will continue your route towards your stopover village, with a dizzying descent into the hollow of the Euphrates valley, leading you to a destination that evokes a small Alpine village.
126 miles, including 19 miles off-road
7/9 • Kemaliye - Kangal
A day full of breathtaking landscapes and adventure routes awaits you. Just out of your village nestled in the mountains, you venture into the Karanlik canyon, a unique road lined with cliffs, interspersed with a multitude of tunnels dug into the rock, with holes of light which provide a special atmosphere. This trail will leave you hungry for new adventures, and you will continue your way out of the canyon to reach Divrigi and visit its great mosque. You will end the day on rolling tracks, crossing mountains and desert spaces.
114 miles, including 35 miles off-road
8/9 • Kangal - Urgup
A final, more rolling stage separates you from the finish line, leading you to Göreme National Park crossing the large central plateau. A pleasant mix of secondary roads and rolling tracks, sometimes dusty, will allow you to cross this agricultural area, rich in cereal crops and sheep breeding. In the distance, you will see Mount Erciyes, a dormant volcano rising almost 4000 m above Kayseri. A stop along the way will allow you to refresh yourself over lunch at the foot of the Pinarbasi waterfalls. You will then reach your destination, where you will be amazed by the proliferation of troglodyte structures and characteristic landscapes. You will fully enjoy this last sunset over the fairy chimneys, a spectacle rich in colors to end this journey through this spectacular region in style.
194 miles, including 9 miles off-road
9/9 • Kayseri
Depending on your flight schedules, you have time to enjoy a few more hours in your hotel. Transfer to the international airport. End of our services.
