By car
As you exit the airport, drive west on federal highway MEX-40 for about 15 minutes, then take the exit heading southeast on federal highway MEX-45 towards Vicente Guerrero.
Dirt roads lead into the reserve, but once there, the only way to get around is by walking. Established trails lead to points of interest and are best navigated with the services of a local guide.
