Tour Two Trains 7 DAYS: Chepe Express Tourist and Chepe Regional (Saturday) Los Mochis - El Fuerte - Divisadero - Creel - Chihuahua
Creel is a charming "Pueblo Mágico" nestled high in the Sierra Madre Occidental, and one of the most iconic destinations along the Chepe train route through the Copper Canyon. Founded in 1907 on what was once a Tarahumara ranch known as Nariachi, this picturesque town offers stunning natural surroundings and a deep connection to the Rarámuri culture.
During your free day, you can walk from your hotel to the town center to explore local handicraft shops, traditional restaurants, and experience the everyday life of this mountain community. If time allows, you may also want to visit nearby attractions such as Cusárare Waterfall, Lake Arareko, or the majestic Basaseachi Waterfall.
Creel is ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, horseback riding, biking, or ATV tours. If you’d like to enrich your day with an optional activity, we recommend speaking with your travel agent to learn about the available experiences.
