Experience with leading hiking and mountain biking groups in the Sierra Mountains of Oaxaca. Familiar with the many geographical regions throughout the state of Oaxaca, including the mountains of the Sierra North and South, Mixteca Baja, Isthmus of Tehuantepec, and the Oaxacan coast.
Referred to as Ñuñume, or the land of the clouds, by the indigenous population, this area is full of tradition, history and culture. The Mixtecs have lived in this region for more than 2800 years.
They believe that humanity was born in the hidden and green valley of Santiago Apoala and spread from there to the wild mountains and valleys of the difficult to reach Mixteca.
Walk on the clouds with us ..... The local ambience of Los Pueblos Mancomunados is fittingly described by the inhabitants' self given title "the people of the clouds". Located in the Sierra Norte, at an altitude of 3000 meters (9,870 feet) above the dry and hot central valleys, you will find a range of unique and diverse ecosystems: seven of the nine types of vegetation existing in Mexico are found here.
