Before you book

Opening hours
Montaña Redonda is open every day from 08:00 to 18:00. Both start times arrive well within those hours.
Getting to the top
Cars stay at the bottom: the track is very steep. The truck costs about 1,000 pesos; the walk takes 30 to 45 minutes on a rough path. The entrance fee is small, about two US dollars.
What to bring
Swimwear, a towel, sun cream and cash for the hill.
Start time
Starts at 07:00 or 13:00, every day. Every tour is customisable: a different start time, extra stops, more time where you like it, or a longer day. Tell us when you book.

Cancellation
Free up to 24 hours before, refunded in full.
