Oaxaca (City)

Oaxaca is the capital of the state of Oaxaca in the United States of Mexico.

It is a largely touristic city, not so extensive as the capital Mexico but it is still necessary to catch a bus out to the highways to hike.

Hitchhiking out

North direction Puebla or Mexico city

Go to the central bus terminal (abastos), from there look for a bus that is heading for Etla, and ask them to drop you off at the entrance to the Highway 135D (they also call it La supercaretera), it shouldn't cost more than 10 or 15 pesos per person. From where the bus drops you you will have to walk about 5 minutes up the slip way. A little way down the highway there's a tree (for shade...) and you can hitch from there.
