The Entire Journey By Railroad Plus The Essential Attractions
Travel on board the famous Chepe train from El Fuerte to Posada Barrancas and from Creel to Chihuahua and you will discover why it is considered one of the great railway journeys of the world! On this spectacular 5-day trip we schedule intermediate stops at Posada Barrancas and Creel in the heart of the Sierra Tarahumara so you can take your time to explore the amazing panorama of the Canyon landscape and discover the most important sights in the area. Our tour, which is so much more than just the train journey, operates all year long, the itinerary starts in Los Mochis and ends in Chihuahua.
The magnificent canyon landscape, an insight into the vibrant indigenous Rarámuri culture including one of their churches, the engineering feats of the railway itself with its 39 bridges and 86 tunnels hugging the sides of mountains and crossing breath-taking ravines, watching the changing micro-climates as you climb and descend through the canyon complex – we wrap all this together, offering you a fascinating in-depth perspective on the culture, the geology, and the flora and fauna of the Canyons. The highlights of this itinerary are listed below :
- Imagine standing on a balcony that’s built right on the edge of the Urique Canyon, at 1,879 m (6,167 ft.) the deepest canyon of the entire system! It will be the balcony of your hotel room where you’ll stay for a night with full board included!
- Ride on board the Chepe Regional train and take the journey from Los Mochis Posada Barancas and from Creel to Chihuahua.
