Is there a continuous function on $\mathbb{R}^2$ with uncountably infinite turning points?

I was thinking about the statement "if f is continuous on the interval I, there is not necessarily an interval J in I on which f is monotone." and this led me to the question "does there exist a continuous function on $\mathbb{R}^2$ that has uncountably infinite turning points?"

I cant think of a reason that convinces me that its impossible yet I can conceptualize a function that does this. Is it impossible? or does there exist such a function?
