To BOOK THIS TRIP, Call 520-589-8034, or email hike@copppercanyontrails.org with your dates and we will work on your specifications. Options: Upgrade Hotel Valley Room to Canyon Views Room $100/nt. 4 Nights Single hotel/tent supplement: $450. 2 Nights single hotel/tent charge: $225. Consider adding a day in Creel (Ejido San Ignacio, Cascada Cusarare), or an extra night (Cascada Basaseachi- 3 hours from Creel one way), or Divisadero (for local dayhikes or Parque Aventura Tarahumara ziplines/cablecar/via ferrata). We recommend arriving by train, and leaving by bus for a departure flight the following day from Ciudad Chihuahua (CHH). We can book a central hotel where you can catch the vibe of the capital of Mexico's largest state, or book a hotel close to the airport. Bus time from Divisadero to Chihuahua is approximately 5.5 hours.

CHePe (Chihuahua al Pacifico) train is the last passenger train in Mexico. Buy your own tickets online (chepe.mx). It is a fabulous journey, and not to be missed; unless you hike the hike! The closest U.S. gateway cities are El Paso, TX, and Tucson, AZ. Get a group together, and we can discus options.
