Birdwatching
Worldclass Birding
Seven per cent of the more or less 10,000 bird species on the planet can be observed in the state of Oaxaca. That may not be immediately impressive but when one considers that the landmass of Oaxaca equated to only . 05 per cent of that of the entire planet, our eyes widen. Couple this impressive statistic with the high incidence of endemism ( species found exclusively within a specific region or ecosystem ) and watching our feathered friends in the wild becomes a “must do”. Join one of our bird guiding guides where beauty and learning are passionate bedfellows.

The Sierra Juarez region of Oaxaca offers the finest slow travel to be experienced anywhere on earth. FYI, this opinion comes from Adventure Oaxaca’s creator, Mary Jane Gagnier; she trekked the Annapurna Circuit of Nepal long before exploring Oaxaca on foot. The Historic Bridges route offers a flexible accordion-expanding menu from an overnight route to a rich multi-day circuit that encompasses ecotourism lodging in four villages and four days of hiking routes that cross seven historic stone bridges.
