Nature and Hiking

Tepoztlán is defined by the dramatic cliffs of the El Tepozteco National Park and the volcanic terrain of the Chichinautzin range. This selection features the steep ascent to the 13th-century Aztec pyramid atop the mountain, high-altitude trails leading toward San Juan Tlacotenco, and the 3,000-meter peak of Suchioc Grande.
