Cascada Las Brisas & Cascada del Salto

East of Mexico City


About 5km southeast of town, there’s a pair of lovely waterfalls. The shallow natural swimming pools beneath the falls are cold but enticing – bring your bathing kit, and footwear for the sharp underwater rocks. Rickshaw mototaxis will deposit you at the trailhead and await your return. From here it's an easy 15-minute walk to the waterfalls.
