    At the apex of this horseshoe bend in the Dades River gorge the water has cut through the layers of rocks, leaving the shape reminiscent of a turtle. The size dimension of the gorge becomes most apparent in relation to the tiny looking fields that are terraced along the river, to take advantage of any flat irrigable patch of soil available.
