Reach the summit of La Malinche.
Contemplate fantastic views of the surrounding volcanoes.
Go through a beautiful forest in a Mexican National Park.

Description

La Malinche is a Mexican National Park located in the states of Tlaxcala and Puebla.

Most of this protected area is covered by coniferous forests, where you can find a great variety of animals and plants. On this full-day guided expedition, we will attempt to summit the 4.461-meter La Malinche peak.

We will head up via the standard Las Cabañas del IMSS route. On the way, we will admire amazing views such as the Iztaccíhuatl and Popocatépetl volcanoes. After 2 hiking hours, at 4,000 m, the trees and vegetation start to disappear because of the altitude. From the tree line, we’ll have to climb an alpine terrain full of rocks, sandy terrain, and difficult slopes. Some rock climbing will be involved.

Keep in mind that we will gauge the group’s overall fitness in order to plan the best itinerary for all. A good fitness level is a must to climb La Malinche, and some prior climbing experience is advised.

So, would you like to experience a unique mountain climbing day on one of Mexico’s most stunning volcanos? Then contact us now and join us on this La Malinche 1-day ascent! We look forward to guiding you!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

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!

Maxine

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.

Joshua

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.

Cami

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.
