Escape to La Marquesa: Nature, Adventure & Peace Just Outside the City

Escape to La Marquesa: Nature, Adventure & Peace Just Outside the City

Sometimes, all you need to reset your mind and spirit is a deep breath of fresh air. Luckily, you don’t have to go far. Less than an hour from Mexico City, La Marquesa awaits — a hidden gem of forests, mountains, and slow moments that bring you back to what really matters.

Why Visit La Marquesa?

La Marquesa (officially known as Parque Nacional Insurgente Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla) has a little bit of everything: stunning views, hearty food, and a wide range of outdoor activities. Whether you're chasing a thrill, looking to relax, or just want a good hike through towering pine trees, this spot has you covered.

Things to Do in La Marquesa

 

1. Hiking & Mountain Biking
The park is filled with scenic trails that wind through pine forests — perfect for walking, biking, or simply getting lost in the landscape. There are easy routes for beginners and tougher ones for the more adventurous.

2. Horseback Riding
Exploring the area on horseback is a local favorite. You’ll find plenty of places offering guided rides, giving you a peaceful way to take in the natural beauty.

3. ATVs & Ziplines
Looking for a bit of action? You can rent an ATV or zip through the treetops on one of the local ziplines. A fun, high-energy way to enjoy the park.

4. Fresh-Caught Trout
A must. Sit down in a cozy wooden cabin and order trout al mojo de ajo or wrapped in foil, served with handmade tortillas and a steaming mug of café de olla. Simple, rustic, and completely satisfying.

Tips for a Smooth Trip

  • Arrive early to beat traffic and make the most of the day.

  • Bring cash — not all vendors take cards.

  • Dress in layers: chilly mornings, warmer afternoons.

  • Sunscreen is your friend, even on cloudy days.

Soulful Steps in the Forest

Many travelers choose to end the day (or spend the night) in one of La Marquesa’s rustic forest cabins — ideal for cozying up by the fireplace and unwinding off-grid. And for these unplugged, slow moments in nature, there’s no better travel companion than a pair of Espíritu huaraches.

Handcrafted for comfort, grip, and timeless style, our huaraches are made to move effortlessly from forest trails to cabin chill. In a place where everything slows down and the natural takes center stage, choosing footwear made with purpose and soul just feels right.

Because with every step, we carry a piece of who we are.
