Full description
Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Apoala and its majestic waterfalls, canyon, and forest. Spend the night on the river bank in the Apoala forest, wake up to the soothing sound of the river and birds singing, hike through a stunning canyon and towering rock walls, explore the river, take a dip in a few hidden pools, and marvel at gorgeous waterfalls amidst the beauty of nature.
This excursion starts in the late afternoon so that it won't get in the way with other activities you might have earlier, allowing you to experience the incredible natural wonders of Apoala.
Meet in downtown Oaxaca at 4:00 PM to begin your journey through the Mixtec mountains. Once you arrive, dinner will be served at 8:00 PM. Our team will set up your tents while you enjoy the evening. In the morning, start the day with a delicious local breakfast to get ready for the hikes of the day.
First, hike upstream to the Twin Rocks Canyon where you’ll discover impressive towering rock walls covered with Maguey, and other vegetation such as air plants clinging to the edges. Then, hike down the river to find hidden pools where you all will get a chance to swim and take in the amazing landscape.
Then, continue the hike upstream until you find the majestic waterfalls where you will get to take a dip in the waterfall lake as well. Finally, start to head out of the valley, pack up and begin the ride back to Oaxaca. On the way back, stop at the Nochixtlan local market for lunch at 2:30 PM and get back to the city at 4:00 PM approx.
NOTE: Quality camping and sleeping gear provided (Tent, warm sleeping bag, inflatable mat).
