Hey guys! In this video we show you some of the best hiking around Mexico City from Parque Nacional Izta Popo to Desierto de los Leones! These national parks are both easy day trips from CDMX and offer the most stunning views of active volcanoes, the valley of Mexico and Mexico City itself!
This is our final Mexico City video and we couldn't have asked for a better way to finish our trip here! We love the city but we definitely love nature more and these two national parks were a joy to explore! Enjoy the video :)
