El Tepeyac National Park, National park in Gustavo A. Madero district, Mexico City, Mexico.
El Tepeyac National Park covers volcanic terrain between 2,450 and 2,500 meters above sea level, featuring eucalyptus forests and grasslands across its protected area.
The federal government established El Tepeyac National Park on February 18, 1937, initially spanning 1,500 hectares to protect the natural environment north of Mexico City.
The park contains Tepeyac Hill, a ceremonial site for the Aztecs who built settlements in Ticoman, Tlatilco, and Zacatenco, leaving archaeological artifacts from multiple civilizations.
Visitors access the park via Insurgentes Avenue near Santa Isabel Tola, with facilities including administrative offices, sanitation services, playgrounds, and designated picnic zones.
The park forms a natural barrier against erosion while maintaining atmospheric balance in Mexico City, with 56% of its territory legally classified as ejido land.
