Creel Things to See and Do
Copper Canyon. Photo by Will Gray.
Creel, in the northern state of Chihuahua, is becoming a major visitor destination, as many tourists come every year to visit the famous Copper Canyon. To see the canyon, take the La Bufa tour, stop at the Divisadero overlook, or hop on the train that passes through it. You can also visit the Recohuata hot springs.

Complejo Ecotouristico Arareko
This is an excellent day walk or half-day cycle from town as it takes you through unique communities and unusual scenery. The whole area is full of Tarahumara people, who live in caves or wood houses, and there are good opportunities to see their bright traditional dress. Natural sites of bizarre...

Divisadero Walk
The famed train stops at Divisadero for 15 minutes but there is no way you can do such a fantastic view justice in a quarter of an hour so try to plan for a day trip as well. To hike right out into the canyon you will need to set up a private trip, which can be a little tricky to organise but there...

Recohuata Hot Springs
These pools, set in a pretty forested canyon, make a pleasant half or full day side trip from Creel. You will generally be dropped off just past the entrance, 3km away from the springs on a bumpy cobbled road. From here a windy descent into the canyon offers impressive views right up to the...

La Bufa tour
Be prepared for a long drive if you choose to do this trip but also be prepared for some stunning scenery. The day consists of around six-and-a-half hours of driving and about one-and-a-half of picture stops and a walk (down the road to take in the impressive vistas at La Bufa) but it offers you a...

Copper Canyon Railroad train ride
This long trip runs from Chihuhua, in the centre of northern Mexico to Los Mochis, a gateway to Baja California. Do not expect to be cruising through the Copper Canyon, because the 15 minute stop at Divisadero is the only view you get, but you can still expect some impressive scenery during the...
