Sierra de Órganos & Nombre de Dios Day Trip

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Durango and head for the Sierra de Órganos National Park, notable for its distinctive magmatic rock formations. Observe these extraordinary monoliths closely.

During the trip, we will traverse forests of oak, cedar, prickly pear, and cactus trees, home to hares, badgers, and white-tailed deer. Our next destination will be Nombre de Dios, known as a Pueblo Mágico, the site of the first Franciscan mass. Here, we will visit the ex-convent of San Francisco, a 16th-century building featuring an ornate façade and Ionic columns. Following this, we will taste local mezcal at El Malpaís mezcalería, paired with bread and cheese.

We will also explore part of the Silver Route, known as the Royal Road of Interior Land, an ancient 1,600-mile trade route designated as a World Heritage Site. Nearby, we will visit El Cuevón, which offers views of golden eagles. This area served as a filming location for Caveman, featuring Ringo Starr.

Our day trip will conclude with our return to your hotel in Durango after 6 hours.
