What To Expect

Pico licos is a great hiking, climbing and rappelling adventure in the city of Monterrey, Nuevo León. We will begin with the mountain hike that little by little becomes a climb along the edge to reach the summit of one of the peaks in the Huasteca (El Dorito), where we will find the iconic palm tree that identifies the highest point along with the symbolic cross of pico licos, to warm up you will go down the first 4-meter rappel to reach the base of the exciting second 60-meter rappel on the completely vertical wall, ideal to test your extreme skills, followed by the last 35-meter rappel to reach the path that will take us back to the meeting point. The summit of Pico Licos is located at 1,250m you can enjoy a 360 view that will steal a couple of sighs, on the one hand, you can contemplate the unique architecture of the city and the majestic wall of the Huasteca where you can take incredible photos from the summit that is part of the great wall that surrounds the Huasteca.

I loved this adventure, the view of the city is to remember. Also, the experience of rappelling at night is another level. It is definitely an experience worth trying and more if it is with a team like LyliAventuras, because at all times I felt safe and the journey was the most fun.

This was an AMAZING adventure!!! The guides were so nice and caring. I really had no idea that I was going to have to do the repelling in a small space. The small space had me petrified because I am a bit claustrophobic. They were patient with me to get me going. Once I got going everything was okay. I am also glad they advised me to wear long pants and long sleeve shirt and gloves because I packed those items. If I had not my body would have been destroyed from the clime and the repel. I would recommend this adventure for anyone that wants to be excited and explore new thrills.

This is a moderate - very challenging hike, based on your prior experience. I would recommend wearing long sleeves and pants to minimize scratches / bruises. Lily and Leo were very knowledgeable about climbing techniques and the terrain, and were patient at parts when I was scared. The experience was totally worth it, and I was well prepared to rappel after taking the class offered by them. The views were absolutely incredible, and it wasn’t too hot because it was in the evening.

I flew out of Houston at 2:30 and a few hours later I was hiking up La Huasteca to Pico Lico. It is a beautiful hike up with rock scrambling. Rock climb is not too physically strenuous but don’t look down! I did find it challenging in the 100+degree heat but it got better as the night fell. You get the best of the day, sunset and night views on this night tour. It was gorgeous. The route is rocky so hiking boots would be helpful. I think a rappelling workshop would also be helpful if you haven’t rappelled before. Lyli took awesome pictures, which I very much appreciated as a solo traveler. Highly recommend!
Excellent service, I will continue doing activities with Lyliaventuras since they have many different adventures throughout MTY

The night views with the city lights are incredible, it is a different experience than doing it during the day, it has a low level of difficulty and with the guides I always felt safe
Very grateful for the attention and would do it again
