Izta-Popo Zoquiapan National Park Hike

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

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

A stop will be made to enjoy a quesadilla and a hot drink. Afterward, we'll continue hiking, where local wildlife such as coyotes, badgers, lizards, and deer may be spotted among the coniferous forests. Mycology enthusiasts should look for various species of fungi in the park.

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