A natural elevation of 300 meters in height with a lookout point called "El Caracol" where you can appreciate the beautiful sunsets of Hermosillo.
This place is undoubtedly the ultimate viewpoint of the city of Hermosillo, as from the top, you can enjoy an almost complete panoramic view of "The City of the Sun."
It gets its name because, when viewed from east to west, it resembles a bell. However, it is also said to be due to the sound produced by the rocks at the highest point, which, when struck, create a bell-like sound.
You can drive up to this hill thanks to its paved roads and good lighting, but caution is advised. Access is through Rosales and Pino Suárez streets, and there is a parking lot at the top.
However, the best experience is to hike up. At the highest point, you can not only enjoy the view but also find a café where you can enjoy refreshing drinks and snacks.
The best time to climb is near sunset to enjoy a panoramic view of Hermosillo, along with the famous reddish hues that the Sonora skies offer at this hour.
