    One of the city's most iconic routes, located in La Huasteca Ecological Park in Santa Catarina, Nuevo León. You can enjoy the wonderful views it offers both of the park's interior and of the city, with a maximum elevation of 1,350 metres above sea level. This tour includes trekking, rock climbing, and rappelling. It begins with a hike of approximately one hour and forty minutes to reach the first vantage point. From this point, we enter the area where we climb on rock, and our next stage will be to continue along the mountain, anchored to a steel cable, until we reach the area of the first rappel, which is 32 metres high, starting on a wall and ending with an overhang to finally arrive at the point called Nido de los Aguiluchos (Eagles' Nest), where you'll enjoy this wonderful natural formation of a hole that goes through the mountain and where you can take some amazing photos. From here, we'll head to our second 25-meter rappel, which you'll enjoy on a completely flat mountain wall, and then continue to our third 30-meter rappel. To say goodbye to the heights of this mountain, we'll continue our descent with a down-climb and a downhill slope to get back to the trail and keep going down until the end of the adventure.
