What you can expect

  • Get ready for the ultimate canyoning experience in northern Mexico with the Matacanes Canyon Adventure, one of the most famous outdoor routes in Nuevo León. Located deep in the Sierra Madre Oriental, Matacanes is known for its crystal-clear turquoise water, towering canyon walls, and adrenaline-filled challenges.

    Your adventure begins early with transport from Monterrey or a designated meeting point. After reaching the trailhead, you’ll hike through forested terrain before entering the canyon. From there, the experience unfolds step by step: rappelling down waterfalls, swimming through narrow canyon sections, sliding over smooth rock formations, and jumping into natural pools.

    Throughout the route, your certified LyliAventuras guides will manage safety systems, assist with technical sections, and set a comfortable pace for the group. The journey includes multiple rappels, optional jumps, and constant immersion in water, making it a physically demanding yet incredibly rewarding experience.
    Matacanes is a full-day adventure designed for travellers seeking adrenaline, nature, and one of the most unforgettable experiences near Monterrey.
