Edzná is a large archaeological site in the state of Campeche in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. The site dates from 400 BC and was once a major city-state of the Maya civilization. The site is known for developing irrigation systems and a terraced farming method that allowed it to grow faster and larger than neighboring city-states.

By combi
Combis depart from Campeche toward Edzna Ruinas every hour and cost M$55 for the 50-minute ride.
By train
Edzna is a full-service station on the new Tren Maya intercity rail line through the Yucatan Peninsula, connecting Maya sites with major cities and the beach resort areas of Cancun and Tulum.
It's an archaeological site. You'll be walking and climbing, though Edzna is an easy site to navigate with well maintained trails, good signage, and cleared foliage. Comfortable shoes and socks would be in order.
