Volcano with two lakes in its crater
Also known by its indigenous name, Xinantecatl, this volcano is the fourth highest mountain in Mexico at 4680 m high. Visitors can hike up to its crater and walk around the two lakes, the Moon Lake and the Sun Lake. Once a sacred site for ceremonies and rituals, Nevado de Toluca today attracts many visitors at weekends, though during the week is very quiet.
