El Divisadero Viewpoint
Divisadero Barrancas
A classic viewpoint from which you can see the Copper Canyon, the Urique Canyon and the Tararecua Canyon, where three gorges meet.
Divisadero is the best-known stop on the Chepe railway. The train pauses here for about 15 to 20 minutes. Passengers hop off to run to the cliff edge for the views, buy handwoven baskets from Tarahumara women's stalls, and eat roadside corn tortillas. Several hotels right on the cliff overlook the canyon, and staying a night allows you to watch both sunrise and sunset. The viewpoint is free and sits right beside the Copper Canyon Adventure Park.
