Your adventure begins with pickup from your accommodation in Puebla, followed by a scenic drive to the magical town of Zacatlán, known for its breathtaking landscapes, misty mountains, and rich cultural heritage.
Upon arrival, explore Zacatlán’s charming historic centre, where you’ll visit the main square, surrounded by colonial architecture. Admire the Parish of San Pedro y San Pablo, a stunning 18th-century church that stands as a symbol of the town.
Continue to the Giant Floral Clock, a beautiful handcrafted landmark decorated with colourful flowers, and then head to the Mirador de la Barranca, a glass-floored viewpoint offering breathtaking panoramic views of the deep canyon below. Feel the thrill of standing over the misty abyss while taking in the impressive cliffs and lush greenery of the Sierra Norte de Puebla.
Next, dive into Zacatlán’s cider-making tradition with a visit to a local cider house. Learn about the region’s apple production and artisanal cider-making process, with the chance to taste fresh cider and apple-based products.
After exploring Zacatlán, continue to the Piedras Encimadas Valley, a stunning natural wonder featuring massive rock formations sculpted by wind and erosion over millions of years. Walk through the mystical landscape, where the towering stones resemble animals, figures, and whimsical shapes. Enjoy free time to explore, take amazing photos, or simply breathe in the fresh mountain air.
After a day filled with history, nature, and unique experiences, relax on the return drive to Puebla, where you’ll be dropped off at your accommodation, bringing home unforgettable memories of Zacatlán’s magic and the natural beauty of Piedras Encimadas.
