This is a perfect area to exercise, to hike or even to go with your Family and friends to make a picnic, cooler than the city on summer time, I really like it, and if you just want to hike and then enjoy a nice meal or even stay teh night, there is an hotel at the top. Nice for staying the night and enjoy the view of the city at night.

Nuevo León has a lot to offer and this is one of them. Located an hour away from Monterrey's city center, Bioparque Estrella is an interactive Safari themed Zoo; meaning you can feed, touch and play with the animals. The price is totally worth it and not expensive at all. It includes almost everything except one or two rides. What´s best, you can ride a boogie that will take you through their natural reserve full of giraffes, zebras, antelopes,water buffalos, and some other animals. While on the ride, the vehicle will stop so you can feed the animals and take pictures with them. This ride will last about 20 minutes. Then, you have the whole day to enjoy of the petting zoos, a giraffe feeding station, animal rides, shows, food courts, and even a pond with fishes that eat your death skin like in the spa. Moreover, you can also enter small aviaries with budgies and feed them. They will get so close to you that you will feel an aviary explosion of joy. I totally recommend it if yo go to NL.

Rugged mountain great for rock climbing.
Reviewed By johnpB3780YQ - Guadalajara, Mexico
I was recently invited to hike in La Huasteca, an area just outside Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico, filled with limestone mountains, many of which are long, thin and high, running in parallel lines like giant knife blades. Cañon la Huasteca, they told me, is actually the beginning of the Sierra Madre Oriental, which extends south for 1000 kilometers. I had been invited to this event by Mexico’s Bakpak Magazine Community. When they invited me to join them for their first excursion of the new year, I was delighted and honored and off I went to Monterrey... Well, these Bakpak people are pretty serious about their hikes and the day after my arrival there they were picking me up at 5:30 AM in total darkness. “I always organize the first excursion of the year as early as I can,” I was told by Alex González, founder of Bakpak. “If they are willing to get up at 5:00 AM and actually do it, I know they are hooked, and I know they are going to fall in love with the outdoors.” To my great surprise, the number of people who got up at five to stamp their feet in the dark on that cold Sunday morning came to 133. Now, I know that Alex had promised all of them a delicious breakfast of chilaquiles made with a recipe handed down from his mother, but they would only get that breakfast after several hours of hiking. What was it that had hooked over a hundred people who could have stayed in their warm beds that chilly Sunday morning? Just as the sun was peeking through the silhouettes of distant peaks, we began our hike through a flat riverbed bordered by matorral, desert scrubland. Soon we were on higher ground and reaching a level where the majestic beauty of those peaks could be appreciated. It was hard to believe that you could find such silence and solitude only 20 minutes from the hustle and bustle of Monterrey, with almost 300 bolted routes that attract mountain climbers from near and far. I looked at the people around me. They were all city folk, “townies,” and here they were hiking through the mountains, and to me it looked like they were really enjoying themselves. I turned to a married couple next to me. “Are you having a good time?” “¡Sí que sí!” they replied with enthusiasm. “We’ve been going on these excursions for three years. To tell you the truth, the first hikes seemed tough and we’d go back home utterly worn out… but now we’re used to it and we love it!” My sombrero is off to the people who are introducing city folk to the great outdoors...and congratulations to the people of Monterrey who have such a great park only twenty minutes from town!
