Biking to The Ancient Tule Tree

1 / 14

Overview

Oaxaca's FAVORITE ride. A must do while you're here!

Join this beautiful and safe bike ride to see the massive and ancient "El Tule" tree, which is famous for being the WIDEST tree in the world. We'll also visit the town of "Santa Maria del Tule", its church and its market.

This is a great GUIDED ride and we'll provide you with a BIKE and HELMET. We'll meet in Oaxaca city to start our journey to El Tule (45 min. ride, 10 km or 6 miles one way).

We'll ride on a SAFE bike lane covered with tree shades for the most part. It's mostly flat. We'll start biking out of the city first, then towards the outskirts with views of beautiful hills, and crop fields.

Once we arrive to Santa Maria, we'll take you to the tree, the colorful church and the beautiful lush gardens. Here you'll LEARN interesting facts and history about the tree.

Then, we'll have time to visit the food market to grab a bite/drink and to walk around the square and gardens.
