Sendero del Capitán Hiking Tour
At 6:30 am we will pick you up at your hotel in San Luis Potosí and travel to the starting point of the 'Sendero del Capitán'. This hiking tour will reveal the city's history.
The hike will begin at Cerro de San Pedro, known for being a historic gold and silver mining center before the city's establishment. The trail will present various landscapes, including meadows, forests, and semi-desert areas.
We will follow the Sendero del Capitán towards Monte Caldera and arrive in Armadillo de los Infantes, recognized for being the first location in San Luis Potosí with a printing press. We will explore the cobblestone streets of this 17th-century town.
During the tour, we will learn about Captain Miguel Caldera, who had a significant role in the colonization of the region. A visit to a cave will showcase an underground world.
After covering 19 kilometers (11 miles), we will reach a ranch for a barbecue-style meal. Following the meal, we will return you to your hotel, concluding the activity at 6:30 pm.
