Mexico, All or Mulitiple City Thread - Copper Canyon

Creel:
Marguritas, located just off the main plaza. Has both hostel facilites and private rooms. Secure m/c parking available at her sisters a few blocks away. Food is usually provided with the cost of the stay.

Batopilas:
Casa "Real de Minas de Acanasaina". Not the cheapest place in town but relatively inexpensive for the quality of accomidations. Located just off the main plaza. No secure m/c parking but some 'off street' stuff across the street. Town is quite safe.

Divisidero:
Rancho de Lencho. It's his house. He has a couple of 'cabins' in the yard and will provide food (quite good)too. Very cheap ($20'ish/night)considering the only other game in the area is well over $100US/night. Secure parking is not necessary out here; there is no town, just a train stop for people to look at the very impressive view.

New to Horizons Unlimited?

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
