Surrounded by pine forests and Tarahumara villages, Creel blends culture and adventure with colourful plazas, local artisan shops, and easy access to breathtaking natural wonders.
After breakfast, leave Creel behind and travel through the scenic countryside toward the Mennonite Community. Step into a world shaped by tradition, where horse-drawn buggies share the roads with modern vehicles, and fields stretch wide with carefully cultivated crops. Visit local workshops and bakeries, sample homemade cheeses or bread, and learn how this community has preserved its language, faith, and customs for generations while adapting to life in northern Mexico. In the late afternoon, return to Chihuahua, and transfer to the airport for your flight back to Mexico City.
