Οι καλύτερες πεζοπορίες σε ηφαίστεια στο Μεξικό

A wonderful place to visit, it's currently easier to access by vehicle (to a certain extent) and with parking. However, if you're someone who enjoys climbing mountains over 4,000 meters from the bottom, I'm sure you'll love the challenge. Don't forget that these are mountains, and weather changes can happen at unexpected times, so it's best to be prepared for anything, bringing hydration and food necessary for the effort and the weather. In the craters, you'll find two bodies of fresh water that form the Laguna del Sol and Laguna de la Luna. In the 1990s, you could dive at altitude in the icy waters. Visibility is very low, so it was done with instruments and good orientation, a dry suit, or a wetsuit for icy waters. Currently, only research personnel can do so with a special permit, as it is an ecological and archaeological reserve. Admission is fee-based, and on weekends, it's very crowded, so be patient and always respect the place. Leave it better than you found it, and enjoy! You can also get there by gravel bike or mountain bike, but achieving this requires good training due to the incline and altitude. Always remember: Respect the Mountain.

Reaching the summit by bike is a challenge at altitude. Reaching over 4,200 meters, the incline, the sandy road, and the strong mountain wind will make your heart race, but the fruits of your effort will be truly worth it with these spectacular views. Be careful of the cold, which you won't feel on the way up due to the effort, and of the sun, which will inadvertently burn your skin if you're careless. Hydration is essential to achieving this feat and maintaining active body calories. The lagoon, formed by freshwater from melting snow and mountain filtrations, measures 200 meters long by 75 meters wide.

Among the highest peaks in the region, this long-extinct volcano Nevado de Toluca (also known as Xinantécatl) is Mexico’s fourth-tallest peak. Nevado has two summits on the crater rim, each worth hiking for magnificent views across two snow-fringed crater lakes – Sol and Luna. The views from here to del sol is super good!

Beautiful spot here to look ahead and see what’s in front of you. Stunning panoramic view!

One should not underestimate the height. It is advisable to walk slowly.

note height. The volcano is about 4300 meters high. The air gets thin up there. So move a little slower. The view is beautiful!

Take care of the high altitude and cold weather. It's an beautiful place.

We hiked this summit early November, the view was spectacular, temperatures were just around freezing at the summit, bring warm clothes. Getting there from the east is quite a climb, you will need your hands but it’s definitely doable. (rocks were mostly not covered in snow). We did the route from the parking then lake la Luna, summit, down by the steep path and then lake del sol in 6h tops, lots of pauses included. I would definitely recommend !
