    One of the most iconic tours in the city, located in Santa Catarina, Nuevo Leon, at the La Huasteca Ecological Park. You'll be able to enjoy the wonderful views it offers both into the park and over the city, with a maximum height of 1,350 meters above sea level. On this tour, you'll do trekking, climbing, and rappelling. It starts with a hike of approximately one hour and forty minutes to reach the first vantage point. From this point, we begin 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 meters high, starting with a wall and ending with a drop. We then arrive at the point called Nido de los Aguiluchos, where you'll enjoy this wonderful natural formation of a hole that goes through the mountain and you'll be able to get wonderful shots. From here, we set off on 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 continue our descent between a scramble and a sloping descent to return to the trail area and continue our descent until the adventure ends.
