Whether it is true or not, the Peña de Bernal is one of the most incredible tourist destinations in Querétaro. Tourists can marvel at beautiful panoramic views upon reaching the top or hire specialized guides for rappelling or other adventure activities.

History tells that this area was a seabed, so fossils have still been found in its vicinity.

Here, you can go horseback riding, camp, and appreciate starlit skies, among other activities.

According to the Ministry of Tourism (Sectur), Mapimí means “high stone or high hill” and is one of the regions with great natural and historical wonders to explore. The area joined the Magic Towns program in 2012.
