Chipinque A.B.P. Ecological Park

Great place to visit, hike, bike and workout. You are only 20-30 minutes outside of Monterrey up in the clouds. Wonderful animal sightings, friendly staff, and visitors. Great little workout stands along the many hiking trails.

Absolutely beautiful, especially when the skies are clear, without smog or such. The diversity of flora and fauna here is wonderful. Have hiked a couple times from the bottom to the level with the hotel / restaurant and playground, and also hiked around the level 3 & 4 trails by themselves too on other occasions after we have driven partially up and parked. My goal is to hike to one of the paths to the very top areas, but need some extra time (and of course the extra fee permit). This is a special gem for the cities and the people. I would be hiking here so often if I lived in the area. Lol but I’m not sure if I’d have the stamina and energy to ride my bike up nor even down. Nevertheless, a gorgeous mountain park with spectacular views.

Chipinque offers a stunning display of natural beauty characterized by its majestic high hill mountains and lush greenery. The area is renowned for its refreshing air and pleasant weather, creating an inviting atmosphere for visitors. The organization of the region enhances the experience, with well-maintained facilities and a strong emphasis on security, ensuring a safe and enjoyable stay. The warmth and hospitality of the local people further enrich the experience, making it not only a scenic destination but also a welcoming one. The breathtaking landscapes and serene environment leave a lasting impression, making every moment spent in Chipinue unforgettable. This mesmerizing journey into nature truly captivates the heart and soul.

Astonishing views, trails for all hiker levels, a bunch of nature and nature sounds is what you can expect. My experience there was amazing, we hiked for a total of ~6 hours (4 to get to the top of El Final and 2 getting back down)... Choose wisely the trails you'll hike the "scenery" one are less inclined but way longer whereas the "Express" ones are shorter but high inclination. My tips: - Buy entrance tickets in advance (~$70mxn) on the website - Bring water and/or water bottles. You don't need tons of water, bring one and then refill as you progress on your adventure from the water fountains - Bring bug repellent (this is nature so expect mosquitos) - Bring sunscreen : wear some before you start but as you'll be (most likely) sweating, you might need to apply a second or third time - Bring lunch / snacks : there are no stores wo you'll be able to eat ONLY what you bring. If your hike lasts more then be prepared with some food/snacks

Nice park, recommend to purchase ticket before arrive. Many trail to select. Many great view and animal.

Very beautiful Park. The views are incredible. There are a series of paths with different effort levels. I totally recommend visiting it. Preferably arrive early in the morning to expend the whole day here.

Amazing. You can walk, ride or run with an incredible view. Take your time to rest amd enjoy the nature. One of the best views of Monterrey, just less than 20 min far from downtown. There is a hotel and restaurant.

Breath-taking views. Bring a good camera. Also the Chipinque hotel is at the very top at the end of the road. Lots of rest stops for pictures, restrooms, picnic areas and play areas for the kids. Good hiking and biking trails all for less that $5 American.
