    Magdalena Contreras and Los Dinamos

    Posted by tuda 14 October 2005

    On the southern edge of Mexico City and already half way up the mountains which surround it. Magdalena C has an unspoilt, village feel and the park Los Dinamos is positively Alpine in character with steep paths through pine forests along the banks of a fast-flowing river.

    Named after now-disused hydroelectric power stations, it is a popular local weekend picnic destination with pony rides on lower slopes, but the higher you climb, the further you leave the crowds behind.

    A great place to clear your lungs of the city's urban soup.

    Take bus or taxi south from Taxquenia or San Angel.
