Minimal physical fitness required; participants should be able to step into and out of the basket and stand for the flight.

Cappadocia’s soft tuff was carved by villagers and monks from Byzantine times onward, producing cave homes and frescoed churches that persist in valley walls.
Operators are increasingly limiting basket sizes and coordinating landings to protect fragile tuff landscapes; stick to marked paths and support local guides to reduce impact.
