Cappadocia - Horseback Riding in Winter Wonderland
Overview
There is no better way to explore the Valleys of Cappadocia than on the back of a horse. After all: Cappadocia's Old Persian Name is Katpatuka, which means "Land of the Beautiful Horses". Our horses are all of full Arabian breed. They have either been born with us or have worked as racing horses before (Elif and Eylül are champions!) and are now enjoying their retirement in Cappadocia. We make it our business that all of our horses go for a walk on their tours rather than work. Their limits are not pushed. Our misson is that we respect the individual needs of all our horses. Your and their safety and well-being is all that matters to us. Please note that we have a weight limit of 90 Kilos per guest.
What's Included
- Private transportation
- Horse helmet
Meeting and Pickup
Pick-up and drop off from Göreme Central Station/Bus Station is included free of charge. Please note that pick up will be 15-30 minutes before the tour starts.
What To Expect
We want you to experience Cappadocia's magical winters on Horseback!
First we will pick you up from your hotel in Göreme (or location nearby) and take you to our horse ranch in Cavusin to get you ready for the tour. Our Tour will take you through two valleys of Cappadocia. We will start in Cavusin, ride at a slow pace on flat ground, then start going up Rose Valley. On top of Red Valley you will experience a little bit of a thrill on narrow trails that only our horses can take you. It is a relaxed ride, but you have to be up for a little adventure as well. Once we ride back down, you have a chance to say bye to your horse and we will drop you back off at your hotel or desired location nearby.
Our horses are used to professionals as well as beginners. Our tour guide will adapt accordingly. We will provide the horse helmet. Please note our weight limit of 90 Kilos.
