Trekking in Cappadocia and the High Taurus 12 days
from £695 excl. flights* The Taurus range of mountains forms a divide between Turkey's Mediterranean coast and the Anatolian Plateau. It is from this range that the great rivers of the Tigris and Euphrates spring. We have a week of trekking in the Taurus in the spectacular Aladaglar Mountains trekking by way of alpine lakes and remote passes to the Yedigoller Plateau and our highest camp at 3100 metres (10,170 feet). In the high valleys of this rarely-visited range, we will be able to meet and take tea with nomadic Turkish shepherds and learn a little of their centuries-old way of life. The culmination of our trek is at the summit of Mount Emler (3723m / 12,215ft), which provides excellent views across the whole of the Aladaglar Massif. At the end of our trek in the Taurus, we will transfer to nearby Cappadocia. With its wildly eroded landscapes and rock-hewn dwellings and churches, Cappadocia is one of the world's most outlandish destinations. During 3 days of trekking here, we visit many of its highlights, including the carved frescoes of Goreme, the rock pinnacles of the Ilhara Valley and the underground city of Derinkuyu. A sensational trekking holiday, with superb and varied mountain walking in two of Turkey's finest areas. |
