In conjunction with Copper
Canyon Adventures we are happy to provide trips into the
beautiful Copper Canyon area of Sinaloa, Mexico. It is a 10
hour drive from Tucson, AZ or an easy 4 hours flight into
Los Mochis, which is one hour from our starting point at El
Fuerte, Sinola, Mx. (see
more information)
The Copper Canyon is home to the Raramuri
Tribe (also known as the Tarahumara). The woman weave baskets
from Pine needles and a Yucca type plant. The income they
receive from the sales of the baskets helps keep their family
with food and extra for their children's schooling.
The cayons are really three canyons with
varing depth. We utilize the train that was built over a 70
year span starting in 1890. The train has been recently revamped
and is a delight to travel on.
