Southeast of Nigde in the Aladag mountains (a continuation of Turkey's Bolkar range) is Aladaglar National Park (Aladaglar Milli Parki), which contains the impressive Kapuzbasi Waterfalls and possibilities for hiking and river rafting on the lively Zamanti Nehri.

The Kapuzbasi Selalesi (waterfalls) is the main attraction, but the mountain scenery—especially in spring, with all the wildflowers, and in autumn, with the foliage colors—is beautiful all along the way.

Overnight accommodations in the park are limited and very basic (spartan village guesthouses), so many people go to Aladaglar (AH-lah-dah-lahr) on a day-trip from Cappadocia.

Aladaglar National Park is about 144 km (90 miles) south of Cappadocia, a 2-1/4-hour drive.

Rock Valley Tourism & Travel of Ürgüp operates day trips to the park and the waterfalls. More...
