El Ferrocarril Chihuahua al Pac\u00edfico se inaugur\u00f3 en noviembre de 1961, despu\u00e9s de a\u00f1os de retrasos y retos t\u00e9cnicos que terminaron resolviendo ingenieros mexicanos. Su misi\u00f3n era unir el desierto de Chihuahua con el Pac\u00edfico atravesando la Sierra Madre Occidental, una de las zonas m\u00e1s abruptas del continente.<\/p>\n

Hoy esa v\u00eda es la puerta de entrada a Barrancas del Cobre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

kil\u00f3metros de Chihuahua a Los Mochis<\/td>\n

puentes principales sobre r\u00edos y ca\u00f1adas<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Un paisaje que cambia de piso<\/h2>\n

Durante millones de a\u00f1os, los r\u00edos de la Sierra Madre fueron tallando la roca volc\u00e1nica hasta formar un sistema de barrancas profundas, entre ellas la de Urique, considerada la m\u00e1s honda de la Sierra Tarahumara.<\/p>\n

Por eso el viaje se siente como subir y bajar de mundo: de las planicies semides\u00e9rticas a los bosques de pino, que alcanzan cerca de 2,400 metros de altitud, y de ah\u00ed a ca\u00f1adas con clima casi tropical en el fondo.<\/p>\n

Qu\u00e9 debes de saber antes de viajar a Barrancas del Cobre:<\/h3>\n

\u2022 Viajaras por una de las grandes obras de ingenier\u00eda ferroviaria de M\u00e9xico.<\/p>\n

\u2022 En un mismo recorrido ver\u00e1s desierto, bosque y barrancas.<\/p>\n

\u2022 El traslado no es tiempo muerto: es una de las partes m\u00e1s memorables del viaje.<\/p>\n
