Ixpalino

Ixpalino is a rural settlement in the San Ignacio municipality of Sinaloa, situated in a flat region near the Piaxtla River. The village sits along the federal highway that connects Mazatlán and Culiacán, making it accessible by road from both larger cities.

The earliest recorded mention of this location dates back to the 16th century during Spanish colonial expeditions in the region. The area gradually became integrated into Spanish colonial administration over time.

The local population maintains agricultural traditions and social practices that reflect the influence of Hako, Nahuatl, and Aztec indigenous groups.

The settlement has a hot and dry climate with particularly high temperatures during summer months. Visitors should expect warm conditions and prepare accordingly, especially when exploring the surrounding area.

The climate monitoring station, established in April 1952, records an annual average temperature of 24.9°C with a distinct dry season from October to June.
