Mountain Climbing in La Malinche National Park

Climbing La Malinche with 3Summits Adventure in preparation for Pico de Orizaba was an amazing experience. I accessed the Explore-Share site looking for guides to La Malinche and they put me in contact with Alvaro and Karla from 3Summits Adventure, from the moment they picked me up at the hotel I sensed the personalized service. My guide Alejandro not only with great personality but also with extensive experience in the mountains, was constantly checking on how I was feeling, always putting safety first but also doing the best he can do to help me reach my goal of getting to the summit. For people without climbing experience like me it is necessary to have a guide that can understand your physical abilities so he can work with you and find the best climbing pace. Having used the services before of other climbing guide companies, the difference 3Summits Adventure provides is the one that will take you to the summit with excellent service and highly-qualified mountain guides

It is safe to say this experience with Angel & Dani was truly one that we will remember for life. The whole experience was well organised, the lodge we stayed in was amazing. The climb gear itself was well provided. There is not a single thing we would complain about. The guides Dani and Angel were just amazing.

Tremendo tiempo que la pasamos. Los tres guías Danny y Alejandro fueron puntuales, pacientes y se aseguraron que mis meta fue alcanzada. El viaje sobrepasó mis expectativas y lo recomiendo!!!

Explore-Share and 3Summits were outstanding in all aspects starting from the time I registered for the La Malinche + Pico de Orizaba climbs. Their communication, follow up and guidance was great all the time. Alex was my guide during La Malinche climb and Lolo was guide during Pico de Orizaba climb. Though it was a slow struggle for me, they encouraged me to perform and as a result I was able to finish both the hikes at a reasonable time. I enjoyed every moment with the guides who were very knowledgeable and vastly experienced. The accomodation, transportation, food arrangements and logistics were top notch. After my return back from the hike, they sent me all the pictures instantly. I am so glad I chose Explore-share and 3 Summits and look forward to doing more climbs with them.

The guides and overall team for the Pico and La Malinche ascents were great! Both hikes were amazing. Highly recommend!

I found the guides to be wonderful and helpful people!

I love Carlos and the team! We ended up changing our itinerary to 3 mountains in 8 days and had a great experience. I will recommend Carlos and his wonderful hospitality and working with logistics anytime!

Guides are the best, super helpful, always motivating me to push forward. Both mountains are challenging but the view at the top is well worth it.

An absolutely amazing experience. My first mountaineering experience and was given all the guidance I needed. Christian on La Malinche and Mesh on Pico were great guides. Would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to reach the highest point in Mexico!!

Good people, good food, knowledgeable guides.

I was someone with little experience. Alvaro and Maca at Explore-Share did such an amazing job helping me to prepare properly. I was able to use their equipment in cases where I was missing anything. The trip went perfectly . . . I had my own guide, so I could climb the mountain at my own (slower) pace, which I highly recommend!

The best experience possible. Excellent service. Great organization and the best accommodations possible. Fully recommended.

Trilogy was absolutely fantastic! First of all the experience booking it was great. Alvaro was very helpful in answering all my questions. He planned the time carefully so that I would have enough time to recover between summits and the schedule meant that I managed to acclimatise to the altitude well and get to the top of pico feeling fine which is significantly higher than I have ever gone before in my life. Having seen people suffer altitude sickness at much lower heights this was a concern of mine. Finally the guides were absolutely amazing. Lovely people who are so passionate about the mountains. I went by myself and they are great company. Highly recommend doing trilogy!!!

Unfortunately the guide could not speak English properly and did not provide me with any tips or guidance despite it being my first climb. We did Malinche as a prior acclimatisation, but we set off too late and the weather was poor on the mountain making it difficult to climb; this is where I believe an experienced guide that is more fluent in English could have helped with technique. I have video evidence if anyone wants to see the neglect. As such the Pico de Orizaba climb never happened and I was not given a refund, very disappointed.

3Summits coordinated a great trip. The guides, Abraham (Pico) and Angel (Malinche) were very experienced and qualified. I felt safe with them the whole time. The coordination and communication from start to finish were flawless. I would highly recommend 3Summits to take you up to the summit of Pico. I would also recommend La Malinche first if you're not acclimatized from climbing Izta or another mountain.

Kindest, most helpful and friendly guides and staff. Really went out of their way to make me comfortable.

Fantastic Guides. Excellent English Language. Incredible scenery. Brilliant Trip

Trip was absolutely wonderful! Very professionally organized logistics and amazing guides. 5 stars all over!

Great trip - Alvaro and the boys took care of everything for my wife and I during the Trilogy/Triple Peak Trip! Food, transports, tents, gear - all went well. Gustavo, Meesh, Abrahim, Dani, and Oscar were awesome guides and got us there and back. They even helped with a flexible itinerary to help changes in our party's schedule.
