I did the Hiking, Climbing, and Rappelling in the Eaglets Nest tour as part of my birthday trip, and it ended up being one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life.

A huge shoutout to Lya and Leo, who…”

“Chipinque La M Summit hike offers the best 360 degree views of Monterrey and the mountain range in Chipinque National Park. I went for a private tour with The Outlands and Pablo and Uriel were excellent guides. Highly recommended. Guides are needed when you choose hikes that go to the summit. They are also needed for safety reasons. Although this is an out-and-back 4 mile total hike, it takes at least 2 hours to reach the summit because of some of the inclines along the route.
