Itinerary

  1. Stop 1

    3 hours

    Hierve el Agua is a hidden oasis 40 miles into the foothills outside Oaxaca City. Only found by following a dirt road that winds through some of the most remote villages in Oaxaca, you’ll be rewarded with a glimpse of Hierve el Agua’s glimmering “waterfalls.” But what looks like flowing water is actually calcium deposits formed over thousands of years, now rising strikingly above the valley below.

    we will arrive at one of the most important natural wonders of Oaxaca; the petrified waterfalls of Hierve el Agua. We will do a hike around the place to admire the splendor of this magnificent place. After that, we will enjoy a dip in the natural pools, a unique experience!

    We will be having lunch at Citlali’s in Roaguia and will cook homemade traditional food: memelitas, tlayudas, and quesadillas, etc.
