Cabañas San Isidro

The Copper Canyon & Ferrocarril Chihuahua Pacífico


High in the hills above Cerocahui, 8km along the road to Urique, this working farm makes a perfect (if isolated) rural base for hikes, horseback riding and trips in canyon country. Brothers and co-owners Mario and Tito have excellent connections to the Rarámuri community's runner-guides. The cozy and artful adobe-and-wood cabins have wood-burning stoves. Meals are tasty and plentiful.

They'll pick you up at Bahuichivo train station if you have reserved a room.
