Mt. Orizaba Climb Details
Located southeast of Mexico City, the massive volcanoes of Popocatepetl, Iztaccihuatl and El Pico de Orizaba dominate the surrounding skyline. Pico de Orizaba is the third highest peak in North America, towering over Mexico at 18,700f / 5,700 m above sea level, and surrounded by small Indian villages. Iztaccihuatl, known as The Sleeping Lady, offers interesting and varied climbing at an elevation of 17,373f / 5,600 m.

Our volcano climbing expeditions to Orizaba and other peaks combine a great mix of culture and climbing, continually proving the Mexican volcanoes to be an excellent introduction or continuation to high altitude mountaineering.
