Goreme Centre-Based Singletrack MTB Tours

Goreme’s singletrack MTB trails are becoming increasingly popular and offer world class trail biking. There are at least three days worth of world class trails within riding distance of Goreme, and if you decide to repeat your favourite routes more than once then a fully loaded week of singletrack riding becomes a real possibility. The trails really are addictive, you will not be disappointed! For the less adventurous there are also plenty of easy dirt road biking options- often linking up some of the region’s most must see sights!

Goreme Dirt Road Biking Tours (Non-technical MTB)

Cappadocia is a perfect region to cycle tour, with a well developed network of traffic free roads, sandy dirt tracks, smooth and easy footpaths and an almost endless list of sights and experiences. We have quality bikes for hire in our Goreme office, and know some excellent routes too (guided and self-guided options available). We also have road bikes and a selection of challenging asphalt tours- contact us for details.

Goreme Office:

Goreme is a small village in central Cappadocia- an area known for it’s magical lunar landscapes, “fairy chimney” rock towers, dormant volcanoes and lush, hidden gardens. Enter Cappacocia and you enter a new world- one that time has left behind. But at the same time you’ll find one of the best balances between tourism facilities and unspoilt charm. You’ll also find yourselves in one of Turkey’s best cycling destinations. Our office is very easy to find- directly opposite Butterfly Balloons on the road that goes up towards Pigeon Valley.

Cycling in Cappadocia:

Whether you plan to take a day or two to poodle around Goreme’s glorious valleys on two wheels or you’re looking for a week long journey of discovery we can help! We’ll suggest routes, free of charge to let you explore the area at your own speed. Or we can help with logistics like taking your luggage onto the next hotel. Or we can organise your entire trip! Goreme has been our home for the last 15 years and we know the area like the backs of our hands! Just contact us for advice and ideas!

Getting here:+-

Unless you are coming from a neighbouring country, the easiest way to get here is by air. Turkish Airlines are the best place to go as they offer connecting flights to regional airports such as Kayseri (Cappadocia), Izmir or Dalaman (Aegean) and Erzurum (Kackar). Our parent company middleearthtravel based in Goreme, Cappadocia, is a fully affiliated Turkish Airlines sales agent and offers highly competitive prices. We can also include flights in your tour package- please email or comment on this page with your request. It’s our job to help you find the flight you need.

Travelling with your bike:+-

Whether you travel by air, sea or land, travelling with a bike can present challenges but is on the whole straightforward as long as you find out the rules and regulations from your carrier before hand! We have found the best way to fly with a bike is to package it with the minimum of cardboard so only the fragile bits are protected. That way, airport staff cn clearly see it’s a bike, and are more likely to treat it as such. Remember to let down the tyres, remove the pedals and turn the handlebars straight though! Bike boxes and purpose build carrying cases are another option. We can often store these at your arrival point. Note that we will go to all possible lengths to assist you with packing up your bike for the return journey!

Transfers:+-

We will meet the flights specified by you on the booking form but please let us know if you make any changes. Transfers are included in the price of the tour.

Vehicle Support:+-

We use high quality modern minibuses to transport passengers and baggage, plus purpose built bike trailers for the bikes. We don’t cut corners on here- on many occasions it is our only link with the outside world so we choose vehicles and drivers very carefully! The best thing about a fully vehicle supported tour is that, road network permitting, you can ride as much or as little as you like!

Visas:+-

Certain nationalities are required to purchase a Turkish visa on entering the country, others must arrange it before hand. Check out our page Travelling to Turkey and Tom Brosnahan’s Turkey Travel Planner to find out what you need! Note it is your responsibility to obtain the correct visa!
