Kapadokya Ranch

Doğanın en içi

Super

Un voyage inoubliable. Une équipe adorable qui prend soin des chevaux. Un coin de paradis en Turquie au coeur des Cappadoces. Merci pour tout.

Nous venons de rentrer de la rando Antalya. Une randonnée extraordinaire en pleine nature de 7 jours. Les paysages sont variés et époustouflants lacs, montagnes d’Anatolie, du Taurus, des plaines, des canyons, rivières, villages typiques et authentiques, bref un dépaysement total! La chevauchée se termine sur le littoral de la Méditerranée au dessus d’Antalya. Les chevaux sont endurants, braves et vifs et les selles confortables! Les nuits en camping de luxe(grand Tipi, douche chaude et tente toilette montés tt les soirs par Yusuf!), et une nuit en gîte au milieu de séjour pour recharger batteries et laver un peu de linge! Les repas, préparés avec amour par Gockan, sont vrai régal! Les emplacements des camps et picnics disposent toujours un panorama époustouflant! Vous l’aurez compris rien n’est laissé au hasard, (sauf les chevaux sauvages vu sur le sentier) et le tout est orchestré par Nicolas, qui a découvert avec sa douce Hélène cette randonnée qu’ils sont seuls a proposer. Un point noir tt de même : on a du mal à réintégrer nos villes et nos boulots après un tel séjour... !

What an amazing place! Professional guides combined with stunning nature makes the riding experience with kapadokya ranch very special. See you next year again.

A fantastic, professional ranch with well-cared for horses and responsible guides. I rode two beautiful horses on a week-long trail and loved the long canters, interesting accommodations and spectacular scenery.

We just spent 10 days at this wonderful place. Nico and Helene showed us as much as possible about their work and we were impressed how they take care of all their animals. Horses live all together in large paddocks, all well fed and trained. I got the chance to watch Helene breaking a young horse and it was the most playful and respectful way to teach a horse how to accept a rider on its' back. So the horses have the most enjoyable life an animal could imagine. Also the goats, the chickens, the dogs and the cats are super friendly and like the contact to humans. So we learned a lot about farming, gardening and animal care and are super thankful for meeting that welcoming fench couple with their son Pablo. We hope we can come back at some point.

Six years after our first (stunning) ride in Cappadocia with Nicolas, we returned for a new trail that starts in the Taurus Mountains in Anatolia and ends near Antalya by the sea. We spent seven blissful days on horseback, galloping through the most unforgettable and varied landscapes. The horses are a dream - endurant, sturdy and so full of energy; and although we were camping, we had excellent conditions: an amazing cook (seriously the best food I had in Turkey), comfortable mattresses and even a daily hot shower. Be aware that one needs to be fit for this trail - you need to jump on and off the horses quite a few times and walk them on some steep trails. I certainly won't wait six years until my next trail with Kapadokya Ranch. We will be back in two years for the Dalyan trail.
