Sierra Norte Hike

After picking you up from your hotel in Oaxaca at the indicated time, we'll board a comfortable vehicle and head east to the Sierra Norte for a special hiking route. Explore the largest area of cloud forest in Mexico.

Before starting the hike, we will visit a family that makes wooden grinders. They will explain their manual grinders, which are used throughout the state for making chocolate. You will have the opportunity to try some.

Then, we will start a 3 km (5 mile) hike to the peak in Santa Catarina Ixtepeji ecotourism park. Along the way, we will pass through significant towns in the Sierra Norte, such as Benito Juárez, La Nevería, Cuajimoloyas, and Latuvi.

As we continue, information about this beautiful region with its thousand-year-old pine and holm oak forests will be shared.

After approximately 9 hours of activity, we will return to your hotel in Oaxaca.
