Get Away to San Juan Tlacotenco and Amatlán

San Juan Tlacotenco is located 5 miles from Tepoztlán. Here, you can take a guided tour through volcanic tunnels, hike and explore canyons, and learn a little about local traditional medicine.

Also 5 miles from Tepoztlán, in Amatlán, check out the Museo Comunitario Carmen Cook. The community museum has a major archeological collection. Don’t miss your chance to take horseback rides through the town. According to oral tradition, it’s where the mythical King Quetzalcóatl ruled over Tula. Be sure to try the quesadillas from the stand that sets up facing the main square—they’re unforgettable.
