Altos de Chavón: Visiting Casa de Campo’s Hilltop Village
The stone village above the Chavón River: what to see, when to go and how access works.
Arts & Culture
Guides to the places where the story of a destination is easiest to read: the ruins on the Tulum coast and at Cobá, the hilltop village of Altos de Chavón at Casa de Campo, the art walk and historic centre of San José del Cabo, and the town of Todos Santos north of Los Cabos.
Each guide sets out opening hours, entry arrangements and the practical route from where you are likely to be staying, with the source of each fact named at the end. Where a site or gallery changes its hours by season, the guide says when it was checked.
