Monarch butterflies have one of the most important migrations in the world, from southern Canada to the oyamel forests in the States of Mexico and Michoacan, you will be surprised by their fragility but at the same time their strength. You can hear its flapping! You will learn about their biology, migration routes, their journey from Canada, the dangers, their predators and their life cycle. We will have a walk of approximately 40 minutes to reach the butterfly colony, if you prefer you can go on horseback (extra cost). After admiring this beautiful natural phenomenon, we will enjoy a delicious meal with ingredients from the region. We will return to Mexico City at approximately 6:30 pm.

After we got picked up we took the drive to the mountain. The guide was very informative during the drive and helped us understand the culture surrounding the butterflies and sanctuary. On the hike up it felt like we were approaching a magical location as the butterflies slowly increased in numbers. The local guide at the location was excellent, although didn't speak English but made the effort to point out interesting things we saw. We went with our 3 year old so I carried him most of the way and was getting severely winded about 80% of the way up. The guides pushed us to continue and even carried our son a portion of the way to help us up because they wanted to make sure we saw this awesome experience and it was well worth it. The butterflies covered the trees and local guides shared their binoculars to allow us closer looks. The hike down was much easier and we were treated to lunch which was delicious. This was a great trip

The Butterfly Sanctuary is a magical place in March. The sun and warm temperatures allowed for the full display of joyful and playful butterfly flight. It is a uniq experience that fulfills many senses. Marta and Alonzo (guide and driver) were wonderful, friendly, caring, knowledgeable and attentive individuals. Brava to all.

belle randonnée en foret pour atteindre le site. Intéressant repas avec histoire de la gastronomie autochtone. Apportez de bonnes jumelles ou une bonne télé-lentille car il n est pas permis d approcher les papillons (a moins de 75 mètres je dirais). Vaut la peine. De plus l argent va a la communauté locale. Cela les encourage a garder le site comme source de revenu alternative a la culture des avocats (et d encourager la protection de la foret contre les cartels criminels qui contrôlent la culture et font la déforestation de concert avec la police locale corrompue).
