Copper Canyon
Introduction
Mexico's Copper Canyon is the largest canyon
in North America and a destination unlike any other! For
those who love the unusual and seek adventure, the "Barranca
del Cobre" is the answer. At an altitude of 8000 feet, the
mountain peaks are snow-capped in winter while the canyon
bottom remains a tropical climate. Here is the home of the
semi-nomadic cliff dwellers, the Tarahumara Indians, the
least acculturated Amerindians. The "Train Ride in the Sky",
provides the only access to the wilderness and is probably
the most dramatic railway journey in the Western Hemisphere.
Travel with us to a canyon four times larger than the Grand
Canyon. |
