Discover The Crystalline Lagoons And Forested Trails Of Montebello National Park In Chiapas
Immerse yourself in the natural splendor of Montebello Lakes National Park, a sanctuary of crystalline waters and forested hills located near the borderlands of Chiapas. The journey begins along a scenic forest trail that leads to a graceful series of waterfalls, including the enchanting Bridal Veil waterfall. This delicate cascade shimmers like flowing silk against moss-covered rock, providing a serene introduction to the park's diverse and captivating landscape of pine and oak woodland.
As the path unfolds, you will discover several breathtaking lagoons, each uniquely painted in shades of turquoise, emerald, and deep sapphire. These tranquil waters reflect the sky and invite quiet contemplation, offering a peaceful escape from the bustle of modern life. Visitors may choose to glide across one of the lagoons in a traditional wooden boat guided by local boatmen, allowing for a deeper appreciation of the stillness and vibrant colors that define this extraordinary natural environment.
The experience continues with a stay at the rustic Refugio Lodge, a warm retreat nestled within a private reserve. Here, the aroma of freshly brewed regional coffee complements the panoramic views from scenic overlooks, providing a perfect setting to relax after a day of exploration. Guests are invited to take peaceful walks through nearby coffee plantations, where the rich scent of ripening beans mingles with the crisp mountain air, revealing the deep agricultural traditions of the region.
This two-day excursion offers a comprehensive look at the beauty and culture of the Chiapas highlands. By combining active exploration of the lagoons with the quiet comfort of the lodge, the tour provides a balanced and enriching experience for nature lovers. Whether you are admiring the waterfalls, navigating the lagoons, or learning about local coffee production, the Montebello National Park experience is a journey into the heart of Mexico’s most stunning and preserved wilderness areas.

Amazing views. It was rainy but still mesmerizing. But if you’re thinking going by yourself for a day trip without a car, don’t… I went to Chiflon and Montebello taking Colectivos through Comitan and total trip costs 440 mxn. Tour companies offer the trip for 600. Waiting colectivos, navigating takes time. If you want to see them both, definitely go by tour.
I highly recommend arranging private transportation to visit the Montebello Lakes. The area is remote (about 55 km) with little to no internet, so offline maps are essential. We stayed one night in Comitán and split the trip into two days, which worked very well: Day 1: San Cristóbal → El Chiflón Waterfalls → Cenote Chukumaltik → Comitán Day 2: Comitán → Montebello Lakes only Trying to do everything in one day would be rushed. There are many lakes and viewpoints, so it’s best to visit at a relaxed pace. We focused on the main lakes: Pojoj Internacional Tziscao Cinco Lagos Plus one or two viewpoints, such as El Caracol and Agua Tinta. We skipped activities and lunch, stopping only for quick restroom breaks. Weather can be cool and change quickly, so bring warm layers, snacks, and water. Toilets and basic food are available at some lakes. Our entrance fees were included in a private transportation package arranged from San Cristóbal de las Casas, which made logistics much easier. A beautiful and peaceful place — plan well and don’t try to squeeze too much into one day.
Beautiful place to visit. We enjoyed visiting all the lakes and taking pictures. We did get a boat ride, as well. This location is ideal to take in scenery, feel connected to nature, and go slow. Perfect day trip.
