The engine coughs to life and the valley opens: pumice ridges, carved tuff, and narrow tracks that thread between cone-shaped formations. On an ATV through Cappadocia you move at the boundary between careful driving and full-throttle exploration, crossing shallow springs and dirt gullies while the stone landscape seems to watch as you pass.
