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.

View of Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl from La Loma

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 view and some quesadillas. 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 your trip safely!

Mexico City - State of Mexico border

Highlight • Monument

Here, at the point where a state ends and begins, there's a place to eat before descending toward Tlayacapan or continuing uphill toward La Loma, where you can take a break and have some quesadillas on the side of the road before Felipe Neri.
On this road with panoramic views of the volcanoes, you can enjoy the descent or ascent (depending on your direction) and the rural landscapes of the area.
Fun fact: According to the sign, this is where Mexico City ends, and according to the maps, the State of Mexico.

Rock Formations of Tlayacapan

Highlight • Natural Monument

This little town is magical! From the mountain formations, the curves of the road, the weather to the food. In the town you will find food of all kinds, the typical ones of the Mexican town to sourdough pizzas, from gomichelas to traditional pulque, wines and water of all flavors. Getting there by bike is not easy, but the really difficult part of the route is returning to CDMX, whether you go up the Loma or through Tepoztlán, it will be a delicious challenge to train and enjoy cycling.
