Pace & Difficulty
All paces welcome* ⓘ
Our experiences are about discovery and connection, not speed. We tailor groups by pace, with guides and regrouping points, so no one is left behind.
The longest run on this experience is 16 km, and before that, we will help you adapt to Mexico City’s altitude conditions with a warm-up city run on the first day. If you can comfortably run that distance at your own pace, you're well-prepared to join us.
Distance:
Ranging daily from 9 to 16km *Review daily distances on itinerary.
Terrain: Expect a diverse range of running terrain, from urban roads to forest trails. We'll experience two city runs on paved roads—the first serves as a gentle introduction to help you acclimate to Mexico City's 2,240-meter altitude. The Chapultepec trail combines forest sections with easy, non-technical trails that feature some steep portions but remain accessible to most fitness levels. Our New Year's Day forest run features more challenging terrain with steeper ascents, muddy conditions, and forest trails.

A delicious farm-to-table brunch courtesy of our local hosts follows.
Later in the afternoon, we’ll embark on a scenic 16-kilometer running adventure across Chapultepec Park, Mexico City’s green heart.

After savoring a delicious local breakfast, we’ll journey to a memorable experience—an authentic temazcal sweat lodge ceremony. This ancient purification ritual becomes the perfect sanctuary for our New Year meditation and reflection workshop, creating space to contemplate our purpose and collaborate through meaningful start-of-the-year intentions.

December in Mexico City is characterized by mild temperatures and minimal precipitation. Daily temperatures typically range from highs of 68-71°F (20°C) to nighttime lows of 41-45°F (5-7°C). This is one of the driest months in Mexico City’s climate cycle, with very limited rainfall and mostly cloudy conditions. This combination of moderate temperatures, low humidity, and less precipitation makes late December a great moment for outdoor activities. You should prepare for significant temperature fluctuations between day and night hours, with layered clothing to accommodate the changing conditions throughout the day.

Santiago lives in Valle de Bravo and comes from a family of passionate mountaineers. Both his grandparents and parents were avid mountaineers and ultra-distance runners and his deep-rooted love for nature and physical activity was instilled in him from a young age. For years, he has been engaged in mountain trail running, not merely as a sport but as a means of healing and exploring new horizons. He has been actively involved in alternative education initiatives, forest therapy, sustainable tourism, and nature guiding. Collaborating with organizations, universities, and the private sector, Santiago believes that transformative experiences in nature can heal our relationship with ourselves and, consequently, with the environment affected by the environmental crisis. A natural explorer, Santiago’s passion has led him to set records on many of the country’s highest mountains, including Pico de Orizaba, Iztaccíhuatl, Nevado de Toluca, and Tacaná. Join an experience with Santiago expecting engaging conversations about mountains, history, mythology, plants, ecology, and various sensory activities to rejuvenate the body.
Santiago is one of our Lead Guides at Aire Libre Running and the creative mind behind many of our “Local Escapes Mexico” experiences.

We acknowledge that we gather on the ancestral lands of the Mexica, Otomí, Mazahua, Mixtec, Zapotec, and many other Indigenous peoples who have lived in and around this valley for millennia. Mexico City stands on the ancient lake beds of Anáhuac, once home to vibrant ecosystems and to Tenochtitlán, the capital of the Mexica world.
We honor the resilience of Indigenous peoples who continue to live, work, and create here, and whose cultures, languages, and traditions endure despite centuries of colonization. We recognize their ongoing struggles for justice and sovereignty, and commit ourselves to walking these lands with awareness, respect, and humility.
