Topo Chico is a small, low mountain in the center of Monterrey, partly within the city boundaries of Monterrey and partly within the municipalities of Escobedo and San Nicolas de los Garza. It is a protected reserve managed by the State of Nuevo Leon and offers some good hiking trails with vistas of the entire city from the peak vantage point. Up and down hikes will generally take 5-6 hours, though you may want longer if you stop to explore some of the caves or need frequent rest breaks. Wear tough shoes and bring water. There are no facilities for visitors.

The fair starts in late April and typically runs throughout May.
