How to get there
Trailhead Access
This trail is located in the northern part of the city of Zapopan, so we have to head towards the San Isidro and El Centinela forests. Shortly before reaching El Centinela, we will turn left at Prol. White River. We will continue straight until we reach the homonymous town and eventually we will arrive at a dirt road (José María Morelos) that will take us to the beginning of the village.
Parking Information
At the beginning of the sidewalks there is an established area (quite large) to leave our vehicles. It is not a guarded parking lot, so it is recommended not to leave valuables.
Fees & Park Hours
They charge $40 pesos per vehicle (regardless of the number of occupants) to enter the park.
Trail Overview
The main path is very well defined/trodden. There are mojoneras (rock mounds) and they have signs similar to those used in the European system (parallel lines in yellow and white). Despite this, there are some variants to the main path, which may also be well defined, but can take us somewhere else.
