Deep in the heart of southern Mexico is one of the most remarkable canyons on the planet. Traveling through requires a journey, there and back again, to discover a realm from another age. If youve ever wondered if Middle Earth existed in real life, this 8 day journey through a real life Rivendell is for you.
Getting here is the easy part. Traveling by packraft is the fun part.
