The jeeps creak into the shadow of the Taurus range and the air cools — pine resin and dry earth replace the seaside heat of Antalya. The convoy climbs a web of rutted tracks, passing stone terraces, low villages and terraces of wild thyme, until the valley opens and a waterfall threads the rock: Uçansu.
