Introduction to Creel, Mexico

Introduction to Creel, Mexico


A tour to this area usually includes the small lumber town of Creel, where colorfully dressed Tarahumara Indians hang out on the side of the road.  Arareko Lake, the Valley of the Mushrooms where you will see intriguing namesake rock formations, the old Jesuit San Ignacio Mission, and the cave homes where the Tarahumara Indians live are also usually visited.  This town was named a Pueblo Magico by the Federal Tourism Ministry in 2009.
