Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl Volcanoes Tour Details

After pick-up, we'll travel south towards the Iztaccíhuatl-Popocatépetl National Park, with a stop for snacks. We will arrive at The Jewel in Paso de Cortés, from where Hernán Cortés first viewed the Mexican Valley. The climb begins from here on a route of intermediate difficulty suitable for beginners and experienced climbers alike.

During the climb, take in views of the Mexico Valley and nearby towns. Depending on your physical condition, you can choose to climb to either the first mirador at 3,800 meters above sea level or the second at 4,300 meters.

One major attraction of this trip is the view of Popocatépetl, Mexico's second tallest volcano, known for its volcanic activity.
