"EL CIELO"
Meaning "The Sky", this spectacular setting listed as Biosphere Reserve by the UNESCO in the year 1985, is located over part of the range known as the eastern Sierra Madre and over the Tropic of Cancer, for which it contains an invaluable biodiversity which includes pine, oak, thicket, and tropical forests, as well as aquatic vegetation. Extending for 144,000 hectares, this reserve inhabited by many endemic local species,
is located between the state municipalities of Gomez Farias, Llera, Jaumave, and Ocampo.
The entrance to "El Cielo" contains the common land of San Jose, organized by local cooperatives in charge of running all tourist services offered throughout the area, such as accommodation, restaurants, communications, and transportation.
