Discover Copper Canyon by train

Today you will board El Chepe, the train that will take you through the Copper Canyon. On the first day of this truly spectacular journey you will travel to Bahuichivo at an altitude of around 1,800m above sea level. You will be met at the station and driven to Cerocahui, a tiny village where forestry is the main industry. It is situated in the Canyon itself and has access to a stunning view point where three canyons meet.

This morning you will have a tour to that stunning view point before boarding the train again. You continue on to Barrancas which is near the highest point at 2,350m above sea level. From the station there will be a shuttle to the well named Hotel Mirador.

Today you will ride the Copper Canyon Cable Car taking in the best views of the region including Outlook points and the Balancing Rock.

This morning is free for you to relax or explore further and in the afternoon you will board the train to Chihuahua. This section of track rises and falls through mountainous scenery as you ultimately descend to around 1,600m. Leaving the train for the final time you will be met and driven to your hotel.

A domestic flight will take you to Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo on the Pacific Coast. This beautiful and historic town will be your base for the next few days as you take advantage to relax a little.
