Chiapas, in southern Mexico, is one of the country's most stunning destinations: lush nature, living culture and ancient history. On Conoce Chiapas I gather the places I've visited to help you plan your trip.
Looking for things to do in Chiapas? Visit its Maya archaeological sites, such as the Toniná Archaeological Zone; cool off in waterfalls, rivers and crystal-clear cenotes; explore caves and enjoy the thrill of rappelling and ziplining. Discover Chiapas at your own pace.
The places I've visited fall into three areas. In the Highlands, just outside San Cristóbal de las Casas, are the Grutas del Mamut and Rancho Nuevo Ecotourism Park. Near Comitán, toward the Guatemalan border, are the Tzimol waterfalls, about 20 minutes away, and Cenote Chucumaltik, about 30. Next to Ocosingo, on the way to the jungle, is the Toniná Archaeological Zone.
Between towns I get around by combi or colectivo (shared vans): they leave often and are cheap. For more remote spots, like the cenote, a car is the better option. The dry season, from November to April, is the most comfortable for hiking and visiting ruins; in the rainy season, from May to October, rivers and waterfalls run high and the water can lose its turquoise color.
