Cappadocia is Turkey’s mountain bike paradise. Its dramatic volcanic landscape offers challenging and rewarding slick rock trails, lush green singletrack and a world of caves, canyons and secret paths to explore.

Tour Highlights:
- Explore the canyons and ridge rides of Cappadocia
- DiscoverDerinkuyu - the vast and magnificent underground city
- Stay in traditional cave-hotels carved into the mountain landscape
- Ride through the Fairy Chimneys
In demanding mountain bike terrain it’s important to have experts leading a tour, and for this trip, you will be looked after by two highly experienced mountain bike guides – one local and one UK MBLA qualified guide (Mountain Bike Leader Award). Their aim is to give you the best mountain biking experience on these seldom-visited trails while keeping things flowing smoothly and safely throughout the holiday.
Terrain:
The whole tour is made up of fast flowing singletrack that criss-crosses the mountains of the Cappadocia region, which sits right in the centre of Turkey. These trails have a wonderful flow, sometimes smooth and fast, sometimes peppered with rocks for some technical challenges, or slimming down to a pencil line, slicing deep into the slopes of a canyon. The nature of the landscape means steep climbs and descents are common on this trip, so good fitness and ability level are required.
