Pickup your 3 Amigos Truck Package at our Creel offices on main street at

with one of The 'Amigos' who'll explain your trip, before you head off into the
sunset.
Day 1: Drive yourself through The Valley of the Mushrooms, Frogs & Monks,
Lake Arareko, Cusarare Village and Mission, Loyola Museum, Basihuare
Canyon, Copper Canyon and finally into Batopilas Canyon to stop in the old
mining village of Batopilas at the bottom of the canyon.
You will have included in your Amigo Truck Package, a picnic lunch with table
and chairs so you can stop somewhere en route today and relax a bit while
you enjoy the views and some great healthy food.
You should take the whole day to get to Batopilas and arrive around 5pmish.
Spend the night in either the Real de Minas or Riverside Lodge Hotel (depends
upon availability) in Batopilas. Meals on your own.
Day 2: Today you'll either drive yourself or walk the 8 kms to Satevo to visit the
Lost Cathedral. After this, you can either drive or walk to the ruins of Hacienda
San Miguel, just across the river from Batopilas village. If you are still up for
more adventure, then you should park and hike down along the old aqua duct
to see some fantastic birds who live in the area such as; Trogans, Squirel
Cuckoo, Mot Mot or Military Macaws. Sleep in Batopilas again. Meals on your
own.
Day3: Say goodbye to Batopilas this morning after breakfast on your own and
head back towards Creel. You will stop in the Cusarare area at the Sierra
Lodge Hotel to spend the night. Time it right so that you arrive at the Lodge at
1pm, in time for lunch. All meals included here as well as margaritas before
dinner.
After lunch, walk the 40 minutes to the waterfall of Cusarare. Then take your
time relaxing in this wooded area of peace and tranquility. The Lodge does not
use electricity, which adds to the charm of the hotel. The Raramuri Indians live
and work in the area so you will have a chance to see them up close here.
Day4: Today you'll drive to Basaseachi Falls, the highest waterfall in Mexico, in
Candamena Canyon. The drive takes 3.5 hours from Creel and you'll arrive in
plenty of time to do some hiking around this magnificent waterfall. There are
trails that take you up above the falls for a bird's eye view and some that take
you to the very bottom of it where you can feel the mist upon your face. Sleep
tonight at San Lorenzo Ranch in the heart of Basaseachi National Park. Meals
on your own.
Day 5: Return to Creel today at your leisure. You'll take another route back
than the one you took to get to the waterfall so you'll see even more of the
area. Sleep at Best Western tonight. Turn in your Amigo Truck tonight so that
you can get an early start tomorrow by either bus or train heading out of Creel.
If you need help with other hotel reservations or train tickets coming from the
Los Mochis area or going to Chihuahua after the trip, please just let us know
and we will be happy to do all your bookings for you and add whatever you
might need to your Package.
Amigo Truck comes with a full tank of gas, you must return it with a full tank
of gas. Taxes not included, restrictions may apply. Prices good through
