El Pinal

Beautiful sunrises in El Pinal

An incredible hill, worth climbing, has respect like any other hill when climbing it, you can camp, but please do it responsibly. The view is covered by trees, but there is one or another corner to observe Malinche and other surroundings. The way is very well marked, there is no loss. It is not very cold but if you have to go warm and with good shoes because there are slippery parts.

A hill to start mountain activity. Wooded and with steep trails. At the beginning, be aware of the route to take to Cristo Rey. For those who do not know it is necessary to bring a guide. Little signaling at the beginning. It is very easy to get lost. Bring the necessary equipment as a day backpack and I suggest a pair of hiking poles. Very nice place. Unfortunately, where the Cristo Rey is, it is very dirty, the typical garbage left by the ill-behaved and the ill-gotten that they are only going to drink and dirty. Be very careful, in the rainy season that must be a real waterfall. If the weather is not right. Do not climb to avoid accidents. Beyond the Christ the King. Towards the north slope the trees open a little and the landscape can be appreciated in the distance. Cars can be left downstairs with the people who live at the beginning of the sidewalk. I recommend letting them know and giving them a bonus at the end of the tour.
