Armadillo Ghost Town Hiking Tour

Pickup will be at 8:30 am from your hotel in San Luis Potosi, followed by a drive to Armadillo de los Infante, named after the family that introduced the first printing press to the town.

During the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, this area experienced significant development. However, at the beginning of the 20th century, the Mexican Revolution led to the decline of Armadillo, transforming it into a ghost town.

The hike covers 9.7 kilometres (6 miles), where participants will explore abandoned structures and monuments. This simple hike includes altitude changes between 134 and 148 meters (436 and 485 feet), allowing participants to uncover the town's history.

After the hike, lunch will be at the 1600 Restaurante, offering traditional Potosí dishes that blend pre-Columbian and colonial flavors.

Following lunch, guests will return to their hotels in San Luis Potosi, arriving by 5:30 pm.
