View of the rock formations in Göreme National Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful view on one of the best tours around Göreme. If the weather is good, you can see the Erciyes Dağı mountain in the background and are reminded a bit of the famous Mount Fuji in Japan :-)

July 20, 2024,Boucle Vallée des Pigeons – Uchisar city in Cappadocia au départ de Göreme

Beautiful hike, but the second part, the descent to the bottom of the ZEMI valley is very wild (large grass) and perilous on some sections.
But this allowed us to see two turtles who came to drink in the stream... equip ourselves a little for this hike.
