La culebra is our easiest bike tour; it is suitable for children, seniors, and beginners. First, we’ll drive around 35 minutes to Santa Maria del Tule where we will start our tour. Most of the time we will be riding through farming fields, and we will cross some Zapotec communities where you can get a glimpse of the daily life of the rural communities of Oaxaca.

Our first stop is Teotitlan del Valle; Teotitlán del Valle, is a famous Zapotec town of wool weavers, we will visit Josefina Mendez’ rug gallery where she and her family will give you a demonstration of the traditional art of this town. It is particularly interesting to observe how they dye wool using and mixing dyes that they get from fruits, plants, flowers and, above all, cochineal.

After our break in Teotitlan del Valle we will continue our bike tour riding through farming fields and some agave plantations; this road has some short climbs and descents that are fun to ride. We will finish our bike tour near Tlacolula de Matamoros where we put the bikes on the rack and once ready, we set off for Matatlan for lunch. (option 1) Those who are fit enough can keep riding all the way to the lunch place (option 2)

After lunch if you want to, we can pedal 7 extra Kilometres through the mountains, surrounded by wonderful views, local vegetation, and agave plantations. We strongly suggest you bring your cameras to take pictures of the beauty of the region. The highlight of the tour is the site known as “las Salinas”. Las Salinas is a place located in the community of San Baltazar Guelavila, the main attraction is its creek with sulphurous water. We can walk upstream in a small canyon with rock formations that due to the minerals in the water have acquired a variety of colours, at the end of the canyon there is a shallow cascade and a pool where we can cool off.

San Baltazar Guelavila is one of the main mezcal producers so on our way back to the village it is worth visiting one of the many local distilleries known as “Palenques” to taste and learn about the elaboration process of this ancestral drink that has become very popular around the world.

Estimated return time to Oaxaca City is 1.5 hrs.
