Xochimilco Welcome Arch

Highlight • Monument

This colorful arch welcomes you to Xochimilco (or bids you farewell). It's currently in poor condition but still noticeable.
At this point on the climb toward La Loma, you can stop for refreshments if necessary, or simply continue on to your destination or training goal.
Fun fact: There's almost always a man at his stall at this point with his dogs and loud music.

San Lorenzo Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

A beautiful place of passage, just to enjoy the view while pedaling or driving to a better stop or destination, although it is not for "mandatory" since it is on the road, you can see from above the mountains and the villages of the South. Don't forget to turn when you go uphill concentrating on your bike. ...smile...

View of Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl Volcanoes

Highlight • Viewpoint

The advice here is to get there, going up here is already quite a merit for those who are not used to climbing by bike or are new to this, for the experienced it is a mere requirement to go up here to get to another side and perhaps return right here . However or wherever you go, stop for some quesadillas, coffee, pulque or other classic road food or maybe just to rest for a moment or wait for the stragglers to continue the route. Normally there is quite a lot of wind and it is cold so you need a windbreaker or to put up with the cold. The view of the volcanoes is wonderful when the weather allows it.

La Loma Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

La Loma, a classic cycling spot where the climb from San Gregorio ends (if you're coming from Xochimilco), is also the crowning glory when coming from Tlayacapan (30 km, almost all uphill, 1,200 m total climb) or Juchitepec (8 km, 350 m total climb).
You can enjoy the panoramic view with quesadillas, coffee, beer, pulque, etc. Weather permitting, you'll be able to see the volcanoes in the distance. Whether you're heading elsewhere, a stop here is definitely a must.
Enjoy the view and have a safe trip to your destination!
