Discover a peculiar Pueblo Mágico nestled in the mountains of the Sierra Madre Occidental on this day trip to Arteaga from Monterrey.
Activity Details
At the indicated time, on the morning of the activity, we'll pick you up at the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Monterrey. From there, we'll hit the road for our day trip to the Pueblo Mágico ('Magic Town') of Arteaga.
As soon as we arrive, we'll check out the irrigation canal that runs through the village. Then, we'll pass through Alameda Square until we reach the Church of San Isidro Labrador, an 18th-century basilica that stands out for its large tower made up of four bodies.
If you choose to go on the day trip on a Sunday, you'll get to explore the traditional market with lots of local crafts and typical products. With two hours, you'll have plenty of free time to grab some lunch and pick up some souvenirs.
Afterward, we'll visit San Antonio de las Alazanas, a settlement in the municipality of Arteaga known for its apple and quince farms.
Not far from there, we'll also visit the harvesting areas located in the Arteaga mountain range, where you'll enjoy dreamlike panoramic views of the Sierra Madre Occidental.
Lastly, on our way back, we'll make a brief stop in the village of Mesa de Tablas to take in the extraordinary scenery of the state of Coahuila. We'll arrive at the meeting point in Monterrey 10 hours later.
