The Sierra Gorda de Querétaro Biosphere Reserve is the most ecologically diverse protected area in México. Experience this small group insider’s tour of one of Mexico’s natural treasures with Travelian’s expert guides!
From the oldest semi-desert in the country to the coniferous forests inhabiting the highest ridges of the mountains, life flourishes here. The extraordinary richness of its oak forests, tropical forests, riparian forests along the rivers, and the ever shady cloud forests are all part of Sierra Gorda’s rich natural heritage. All of this houses 2,310 species of vascular plants, 110 mammal species including the majestic jaguar, 134 reptile and amphibian species, one third of the Mexican butterflies with 800 species, and about 343 birds that include several endemic and highly threatened species. |
