Pico de Orizaba 2 Day Hiking Tour
Day 1: Puebla - Pico de Orizaba
Pickup will be at your hotel in Puebla at 8:30 am, followed by a trip east towards Pico de Orizaba, also known as Citlaltépetl. In Tlachichuca, we will switch from a minibus to a 4x4 vehicle that will take us to the north refuge of Pico de Orizaba, where we will set up our tent and have lunch. A short hike to acclimatise will follow, after which you will have free time in the afternoon.
Dinner will be served, and we will retire early for rest in preparation for the next day's hike.
Day 2: Pico de Orizaba - Puebla
We will wake at 12:30 am for breakfast at the refuge. The hike will begin shortly after, taking approximately 8 hours to reach the summit at 5747 meters (18854,99 feet). During the ascent, we will learn about the formation of the area and facts about Citlaltépetl, including its unique frozen lava.
This hiking route provides stunning landscapes and insights into the flora and fauna of the high mountains. A magical sunrise will also be part of the experience.
We will then commence our 4-hour downhill route back to base camp, followed by a meal to regain strength before returning to the 4x4. The tour will conclude between 5 pm and 6 pm at your hotel in Puebla.
