Area Natural Protegida Sierra de Lobos ? Located
55 km (34 mi) northwest of Guanajuato and 30 km (18 mi) north of the city
of Leon. Also known as the
Vergel de la Sierra. This natural area
has played an important role in protecting the Mexican wolf,
which is how it got its
original name. The comfortable grounds on this nature
reserve allow you to do diverse recreational
activities, such as hiking. Experienced guides will take
you on a tour that provides spectacular
views of cliffs and dams.
Valle de Santiago ? Located
88 km (54 mi) from
Guanajuato off highways 110
and 45. This protected ecological zone has a group of volcanic craters.
It has varying climates, which have allowed the
development of diverse forms of
wildlife. The rough terrain of
the so-called Land of the
Seven Lights is ideal for doing
such recreational activities as trekking and rappelling. The mountains have
walls that are between 2 and 20 meters (6 and 66 feet) tall, and
of varying difficulty levels. Companies in Guanajuato and Leon offer safe
tours.
