Barranca del Río Suchitlán
A ravine a few steps from the church of the town of Suchitlán, on the slopes of the Colima Volcano. A cobbled, somewhat steep path of about 150 meters goes down to a clear river running between plants and large rocks, with a suspension bridge across it. On the other side, a stone path climbs for a better view of the landscape. There are no signs: just ask the locals.
