We start and end the route just 15 minutes from down town Saltillo in the San Lorenzo canyon land. We ascend a path in the border with the desert of Chihuahua, we’ll appreciate the change of vegetation from semi-desert to pine and oak forest, then we’ll arrive to the canyon entrance. From this point we’ll start the descent doing 4 to 5 rappels up to 50 meters height (course of rappel included).
