Walking Experience in San Jose del Pacífico and the Magic Mountains

Highlights

  • We started our tour at dawn, taking a path that will show us the biodiversity of Oaxaca to reach the impressive San José del Pacífico, a community that is 2500 meters above the level of the sea and whose fame is characterized by the cultivation and consumption of hallucinogenic mushrooms, which occur mostly in the seasons from June to October. We do a walk through the forest, keep in mind that the weather is cold, sometimes with a lot of fog or some rain, so prepare with a sweater and a raincoat. You can reserve the option of healing ritual: Complete purification in the temazcal, try hallucinogenic mushrooms and then walk through the forest, this ritual allows you to have a closer contact with nature. We will hike through the forest with a local guide.
