Explore a magical landscape and discover the indigenous legends that are told about it with this hiking route through the Izta-Popo Zoquiapan National Park.

Izta-Popo Zoquiapan National Park Hike

After picking you up from your hotel in Puebla, we will head towards the Izta-Popo Zoquiapan National Park. We will pass through Paso de Cortés until we reach the parking lot of La Joyita to begin the hiking route.

We will walk along the Ruta de los Portillos, a 4-kilometer path featuring icy landscapes and deserted areas. At certain points, you will have views of the park's two volcanoes, Iztaccihuatl and Popocatepetl, while learning about their legends.

We will stop to enjoy a quesadilla and a hot drink before continuing our hike. It is likely to see local wildlife, such as coyotes, badgers, lizards, and deer among the coniferous forests. If you are interested in mycology, look for various species of fungi in the park. It will be a unique experience!

After 4 hours of hiking, we will return to the main parking lot and head back to your hotel in Puebla, arriving around 5 PM.
