  • 5/5 Damir V. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful mountain. With its sum­mit rest­ing at 18,491 feet / 5,636 meters, Pico de Oriz­a­ba is the high­est point in all of Méx­i­co. Sum­mit­ing this vol­cano is a con­sid­er­able chal­lenge, one that will give you per­spec­tive into your own capa­bil­i­ties and will build con­fi­dence to reach high­er summits. Climbers should have basic snow and ice-climbing skills and should be comfortable with glacier travel, which includes moving in a rope team, self arrest, and basic crevasse rescue. Basic knowledge and experience would be required for objectives with some rock climbing. It's magical experiance.

    6 hours up, 3.5 hours down. Went with an Explore-Share 3Summits guide: Gilgamesh who did a good job. Of the two groups that set out for peak that day only ours made it, in discussions with locals, they estimate a 40% rate of success.

    Beautiful alpine climb, great views from the summit. Beware of ice on the glacier and crevasses.

    Fantastically fun and an easy single day push just give yourself time to acclimate. Orizaba Mountain Guides can arrange everything from fuel to water to guides and their hacienda is wonderful. Highly recommend this mountain.

    A must for every Alpine climber. Amazing place to hike and climb. Highest mountain in México. The Piedra Grande shelter offers a place to stay the night before the ascent. A wonderful place.

    Beautiful spot for a long hike. Also, if you have a 4×4 vehicle you can drive almost to the top.

    Please only attempt with experience in mountaineering. If you have previously felt how it's like to slip on Ice/snow then by all means, it is a great mountain and a bit of a challenge when you have never dealt with 45 degree slopes for at least a solid hour.
