Hasandağ volcano is a mountain that overlooks Cappadocia and Salt Lake region. Like a guard protecting the fertile plains of Central Anatolia. It is impossible not to be enchanted by its magnificent mass, even if you just pass through the highways that around the mountain. As Erciyes, the largest volcano in Central Anatolia, and its brother Hasandağ gave all their volcanic fertility to these Anatolian plains and became the water source of this basin.
Ski climb to the 3265 m high Hasandağ ,or split boarding as well, is a short, demanding and satisfying weekend adventure. We have to confess that climbing this mountain with no snow is not very attractive for experienced hikers and mountain athletes. However, climbing this mountain on skis is definitely a worth-to have experience. Moreover, it does not take a long time to reach its peak. If you are at the right time in winter, if your physical condition and experience are sufficient, you can comfortably reach the summit with a well-prepared organization. In this trip, which we planned as a weekend activity, we also set aside a half day of skinning up and skiing together. This will help for reviewing our safety procedures as well as to have an acclimatization activity. Moreover, we will make this other tour as comfortable as possible with pension-hotel accommodation.
As the trip is for limited participants and highly requested, we recommend you to take a quick action to reserve your place in this beautiful experience.
