You can smell wood smoke and frying dough from a roadside café; the guide points toward the first ridge and the valley below seems to breathe — rock ribs and chimneys rising like petrified waves. Over seven hours you move from panoramic ridgelines to winding cave streets, guided through landscapes that were both shelter and scripture for people who carved homes, churches and pigeon lofts from soft volcanic tuff.
