Road Log
Hotel Paraiso del Oso to Temoris
The dirt road from the Hotel to
Temoris is well traveled and usually in good condition; however, do be
careful during heavy rain. We made the trip in two hours on ATVs moving at a
moderate pace. A truck or SUV would take about an hour longer. Temoris is a
large, clean town that was originally devoted to mining. There are a
selection of hotels, restaurants, and services. The town celebrates the day
of its patron saint, San Miguel, with a multiple day fiesta in late
September.

Left turn leads to beautiful
lookout over the railroad and Temoris station. The road is less
traveled than the main road and goes steeply uphill. To find the turn,
pass a playground on the right then take the left. Distance from the
turn to the lookout is 1.8 miles. Well worth the time and a good place
for a picnic. |
