Monarch Butterflies

Today we took a trip out to see the Monarch Butterflies about 30-40 minute south east of Valle de Bravo. We negotiated for a taxi to drive us there, wait 3 hours and then take us back (600 pesos, about £27) and off we went.

It was about an hours hike to about 3,120m where the Oyamel Fir grows which the monarchs need to hibernate.

We only had about 15 minutes with the butterflies but it was a lovely time.Läs mer
