Packing List

How to get there

Trailhead Access

Starting from Monterrey, we will take the National Highway from Av. Eugenio Garza Sada or Av. Revolucion, and once on that road we will continue straight to Allende, where we will turn right at Lic. Ramiro Tamez M. and continue straight on that road for approximately 8.8 km until we reach the point where we can park.

Parking Information

To get to this point we can search Google Maps for: Parking A “Cascada la Cebolla”. It's a small space, if you want to find a place there, arrive early, or you can park in spaces before that place (in Paso Canavati) and add approximately 400 meters to the walk.

Fees & Park Hours

Sometimes we can find someone from the Ejido (or owner of the land) charging $50 pesos. Always consider carrying cash if necessary.

Trail Overview

The route is clearly visible and easy to follow since it is dirt and the road is always wide enough for a vehicle to travel.

This route has a physical difficulty of level 6 or 8 depending on our difficulty classification metric, depending on how you do it. This implies that the ascent has between 1,000 and 1,200 meters of unevenness (considering that you only climb on foot on the ascent to the waterfall); if you are going to venture the entire route on foot, add another +400 m. This would increase the level of difficulty to this route to level 8. Consider that there are 5 km of ascent and 5 km of descent one way only, so the return will be the same and the route is 20 km in total.
