A great experience
This experience was challenging but we felt safe with our guide Bastian. He was very knowledgeable, aware of the weather and also had a great conversation with lot of good tips about the local spots to visit. He was truly the best.

Excellent 1 day hike
Very good experience. Since before the trip share different useful instructions to carry out the day of the event well. During the day you are picked up directly from your place of accommodation. The guide has a very enjoyable and interesting conversation in addition to speaking different languages (Spanish, English and German that I know). The guide will settle in your path. Definitely a 10/10 experience

Pico del Aguila 3,880m/ 12,729ft Hike Devils Backbone Summit CDMX: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Pico del Aguila 3,880m/ 12,729ft Hike Devils Backbone Summit CDMX cost?
+
Prices start at $89 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mexico City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Pico del Aguila 3,880m/ 12,729ft Hike Devils Backbone Summit CDMX take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mexico City is not rushed.
Is Pico del Aguila 3,880m/ 12,729ft Hike Devils Backbone Summit CDMX worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mexico City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Pico del Aguila 3,880m/ 12,729ft Hike Devils Backbone Summit CDMX?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Pico del Aguila 3,880m/ 12,729ft Hike Devils Backbone Summit CDMX suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Pico del Aguila 3,880m/ 12,729ft Hike Devils Backbone Summit CDMX?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mexico City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mexico City and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Pico del Aguila 3,880m/ 12,729ft Hike Devils Backbone Summit CDMX start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mexico City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mexico City?
+
On Outty we rank every Mexico City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Teotihuacan 3 Pyramids Tour + Hotel Pick Up + Lunch at La Gruta, Historic Center Essentials: Mexico City Downtown Walking Tour, PREMIUM Frida Kahlo Museum and Xochimilco (Small Groups). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mexico City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mexico City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
