Sierra de Órganos National Park

The Sierra de Órganos National Park spans 1,125 hectares of land, featuring rock formations that extend vertically like massive stone pipes across the landscape.

The Mexican government established this protected natural area on November 27, 2000, integrating it into the El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro cultural route.

The park serves as a conservation space where numerous American and Mexican western films were recorded during the 1950s and 1960s, including The Tall Men.

Visitors access the park through a 10-kilometer dirt road from Highway 45, with hiking trails and camping areas available throughout the protected zone.

The geological structures within the park emerged through millions of years of erosion, creating natural rock columns that reach heights between 75 and 100 meters.
