This five-day hiking trip takes you from Oaxaca to some of the small villages of the Pueblos Mancomunados – a Zapotec community tourism project in the Sierra Norte Mountains. With local guides and your handy local leader, you’ll hike from village to village along rural paths and forest trails, soaking up the natural scenery of the highlands. With hard-to-access Zapotec villages, you’ll leave the common tourist trail and visit local small farms, participate in a cooking class, join a pulque and tepache workshop and spend each night in a community cabin. With an Intrepid leader by your side, you can get closer to some of Mexico's favourite places, no matter how much time you have.
