Description

I invite you to bring your family along and join me on a great day hike around the Nevado de Toluca, an ancient extinct volcano located at about 80 kilometres from Mexico City. Its crater contains two beautiful lagoons, the Laguna de la Luna (Moon Lagoon) and the Laguna del Sol (Sun Lagoon).

The Nevado de Toluca is one of the highest peaks in Mexico. The trail reaches a breathtaking height of 4680 meters above sea level, with spectacular views over the two lagoons and over the Valley of Toluca, Ajusco Mountain and the rolling hills of Oaxaca and Veracruz.

Our hiking tour will take us about 4 hours. This program is suitable for people of all ages, even for children. You will be amazed by the beautiful colors of the Sun and Moon Lagoons, with greenish crystal blue waters.

Please note due to high altitude, temperatures are usally low around the mountain, so it’s strongly recommended to wear warm clothes for this hike. And don’t forget to bring your camera: the lagoon landscapes are truly amazing! 

So what are you waiting for? Send us a request and come discover the spectacular Nevado de Toluca landscapes! Check out our profile page for other great adventure trips and tours in Mexico!

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.
