Ürgüp - Damsa Dam - Ürgüp

On this route, we’ll ride through valleys around Pancarlik Valley and visit cave churches dating as early as the 10th century! After riding through the local vineyards and orchards, we’ll arrive at Damsa Dam. We’ll continue through the single tracks of Gomeda Valley and head back to Ürgüp. A small stream crosses the valley and there are pigeon houses carved into the rocks!
