Nevado de Toluca Climbing Notes

Hiking Season: All year
On the southern part of Toluca we can visit a beautiful volcano with lakes inside, which is the name that the inhabitants of ancient Xinancatecatl. It has an altitude of 4632 metres.
This is Mexico's fourth highest mountain, after the Pico de Orizaba, Popocatepetl, and Iztaccihuatl. (By some measurements, however, the Sierra Negra is slightly higher.) , and it is unique in that one can drive into the crater of this volcano. Nevado de Toluca has two summits, the higher Pico de Fraile (Friar's Peak) at 4680 metres.
