Itinerary

Parque Ecoturistico de Rancho Nuevo

2 hours Admission included

The Grutas de Rancho Nuevo Ecotourism Park is a natural space located 15 kilometers from the city of San Cristóbal de las Casas. The most important thing in this space are some caves inside the mountain.

But in addition to this attraction, Rancho Nuevo has other tourist attractions, such as a large space where you can walk in nature, the possibility of horseback riding, a very long slippery slope, where the little ones in the family can enjoy, and a great variety of places to eat, especially chorizo quesadillas (specialty of the place).
El Arcotete

2 hours Admission included

One of the most hidden tourist places in San Cristóbal de las Casas is the Arcotete. This impressive natural stone arch owes its name to the incredible limestone rock structures with stalactites ideal for rock climbing. The place has more than 2 medium grade rock climbing routes. There is also a camping area and horse and bicycle tours.
