Active & outdoors in Göreme

Göreme sits at the heart of Cappadocia and offers a striking setting for outdoor activities. Göreme National Park provides trails through valleys of eroded volcanic rock, while Uchisar Castle and Zelve village make rewarding destinations on foot. Hilltop viewpoints — Aktepe Hill, Balloon Viewpoint, Bayramtepesi and the Sunset Point — reward those who seek out panoramic perspectives over the landscape. Underground, the carved cities of Derinkuyu and Kaymaklı offer a different kind of exploration. Nearby, the Andrew Rogers Open Air Sculpture Park and Avanos Kalesi add further variety to what the wider Nevşehir area has to offer.
