Tour to Cerro del Gallego and Urique Viewpoint

We start our day with an amazing tour to Cerro del Gallego to admire the Urique Canyon, the highest in the Copper Canyon with an altitude of 2,370 meters above sea level. The Urique Canyon has a visible height of more than 1,879 meters. It is so high that in the lower part there is a tropical climate and in the highest part a cold and wooded climate. In the lower part of the Canyon is the town of Urique, which is a Tarahumara settlement between the Urique canyon and the Urique River. From the Cerro del Gallego you can see the vastness like nowhere else in the Copper Canyon. An experience that will leave you breathless, a scenario that seems to come out of a fantastic story or a painting. You will see the most important natural grandeur of the Copper Canyon and the Sinaloa and Mexican landscape.

We enjoyed the trip, a good itinerary with no real early mornings. A good mix of planned activities and free time.
Make sure to bring bug spray.
We picked the first class category, all but a couple of meals were included.
We encountered friendly staff all along the trip.
Fantastic scenery, the zip line was fun.
If you are thinking about going I would definitely recommend it.

Fue maravilloso todos los lugares que visitamos con los 7 días es un tiempo suficiente para visitar todos los lugares. Lo único que falto fue que hubiera nieve, este punto del clima hay que revisarlo muy bien para no cargar de más como fue nuestro caso. En el chepe deberían integrar alguna forma automática de limpiar los cristales de las ventanas. Felicidades a la agencia, hoteles y choferes- guías.

A partir de las actividades a realizar en Creel hizo falta recibir informacion de quien y a que hora pasarian por nosotros, seria recomendable incluir la informacion en el itinerario. Lo mismo sucedio con el traslado del hotel en Chihuahua al aeropuerto, lo supe hasta por la noche anterior. El hotel en Chihuahua no me gusto, el Ramada Encore, es un hotel totalmente de negocios, no deberia ser opcion para viajes de placer, esta lejos de la ciudad, el desayuno muy austero y los 2 dias que estuve ofrecieron los mismos alimentos.

Más una reseña les doy cuenta de algunas recomendaciones. El hotel Santa Anita en Los Mochis está muy sucio y huele muchísimo a humedad; urge que lo mejoren Incluso podrían ponerle una alberca porque hay muy pocas cosas que hacer en Los Mochis. Por lo que toca al trayecto en tren, el único tramo que vale la pena es de Los Moches hasta Divisadero, el resto convendría hacerlo por carretera. Nosotros tuvimos que comprar boletos de autobús de Creel a Chihuahua con tal de ahorrarnos 6 horas o más de viaje en el tren regional. Espero que mis sugerencias les resulten de utilidad. Además, si la programación dependiera de mí, quitaría la parada en Cerocahui. Saludos
