Experience Cappadocia’s natural beauty from a whole new angle with the Ihlara Flight, a hot air balloon adventure soaring over the stunning Ihlara Valley. This lush, dramatic canyon — carved by the Melendiz River — offers a completely different landscape from the region’s typical fairy chimneys, making it one of the most unique balloon experiences in Cappadocia.
