Emerged from the sea bed about 60 million years ago, the Sierra Gorda today scarps the clouds of the sky of Queretaro. The abrupt of its topography gives him the presence of the main ecosystems of the country, from the deserted to the foggy forest. It has three main attractions: the inspiring natural landscapes; the adrenaline in its ecotouristic camps; and the five Franciscan Missions, the last and wonderful baroque constructions in the History, declared World Heritage.
