“Don’t push the river, it only flows.” Barry Stevens

Who can speak of cannoning in Mexico and not mention Matacanes?  Matacanes is the star of cannoning, only 2 hours from Monterrey in the belly of the Oriental Sierra Madre.  In the middle of a prodigious forested stage, the famous canyon affords us a unique experience each time we go there.

The unforgettable trek through Matacanes includes rappelling down waterfalls and natural slides.  We guarantee that you will experience being torn between jumping and staying where you are.  You’ll feel your emotions flow like the river as you jump into turquoise colored water in the pozas and you explore the two incredible caves formed by the flow of water through time.  There you will see natural formations, like showers, where the water filters through, so clear you will want to drink from them, the waters that give their name to this legendary trip: MATACANES.
