A trip that is exotic to say is an understatement! The Aladaglar and Cappadocia mountains hide within their folds an infinity of small villages, hidden valleys surrounded by mountains and volcanoes that exceed three thousand meters in height... The ski mountaineering itineraries here are decidedly secluded, the crowds are discouraged by the rough environment of the mountains Turkish and leave room for authentic ski mountaineering. We are in the south of Turkey: the disturbed currents arriving from Siberia run free and cold over the great plains of Central Asia, enriching themselves with humidity on the Caspian and Black Seas and giving these mountains abundant snow; the valleys, always deep and sunken, sometimes with a severe and dolomitic appearance, require off-road approaches and differences in height that often exceed 1500 metres!

Global Mountain Alpine Guide
Alpine guide since 1998, always passionate about travelling, skiing and climbing, horses and open spaces, sports and nature. After years of traveling around the world, he gives birth to the idea of Snowder® which, in addition to being a brand, aims to be a "way" of travelling, where the practice of a sport such as ski mountaineering becomes an excellent "excuse" to travel, a reason to discover distant lands – even better if little frequented – new people, snow and unknown landscapes.
