"This is the fourth highest peak in Mexico. The crater of this inactive volcano has two alpine lakes that are easily accessible by a 20-minute hike. The volcano is 15,350 feet above sea level, so walk slowly and carefully, even if the trail seems fairly easy. The place can also be very cold and windy during winter. You can find some tour providers online, but the best way to get there is by car, so either rent one or convince a local friend to get you there. Reaching the Nevado will take you around two and a half hours from Mexico City, but you really want to arrive there early since the weather can be unpredictable in the afternoons. The last part of the road is unpaved and quite difficult to navigate at night, so make sure you’re on your way back to the city before nightfall." - MATADOR_NETWORK
