Description

Definitely one of the most famous peaks in Mexico, the El Nevado de Toluca (4,680m) is a truly stunning mountain. It is also considered the fourth highest peak in all of Mexico.

Located in the State of Mexico, not far from Mexico City, the Nevado de Toluca is quite distinct. Almost always seen with snow on its summit, and with two crater lakes, the top of the volcano is astounding. Furthermore, the views you can enjoy from the top of the peak are incredible.

The route we will be taking to the top of the mountain will go via he famed Canada del Oso (The Bear Ravine). This route differs from the standard route as it will take you through the beautiful woods to the side of the volcano. Once we reach the pass, you will get to enjoy stunning views of the nearby valleys, as well as the previously mentioned crater lakes.

Despite the enormity of the Nevado de Toluca, reaching its summit is not very difficult. However, you should be in good physical condition, and some prior trekking experience in similar terrain is advantageous.

If you would like to trek to the top of one of the most famous, and beautiful, peaks in Mexico, this is your chance. To join us on this unforgettable expedition, please send a request. We look forwarding to guiding you.

We can also take you to the Pico de Aguila on the Ajusco Volcano on this full-day trip.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
