Nombre de Díos Day Trip

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Durango and set off for Nombre de Díos. In this pueblo mágico (magic town), we'll discover the most scenic spots in the area.

First, we'll stop at the El Saltito Waterfalls to admire the 66-foot (20-metre) waterfalls from the Mezquital River. We'll then head to the Berros Springs, featuring natural pools with water from the Acaponeta River.

Nearby, we'll visit the small village of La Constancia, where we'll see the Las Compuertas stream, surrounded by fig, peach, and apricot trees. Next, we'll go to the El Malpaís mezcalería to sample mezcal liquor. If you enjoy Westerns, you'll appreciate our next stop: a site where part of the film A Man Called Horse was filmed.

Upon reaching Nombre de Díos, founded by the Spanish in 1563, we'll stroll through its cobblestone streets and admire historic monuments such as the ex-convent of San Francisco. We'll also visit the outskirts to see El Cuevón, a landscape inhabited by golden eagles.

Finally, we'll return to Durango, arriving at your hotel approximately 6.5 hours later.
