Mascota is the destination of a popular pilgrimage route. Millions of people walk to Talpa every year during Easter week, three million in 2010. The walk can be anywhere from a few kilometres to a hundred or more depending on the starting point. It includes several climbs of hundreds of meters. We encountered a group of walkers in the Restaurant Navidad in Mascota where we had lunch. They had already walked two and a half days from a coastal town in Nayarit and would complete their journey on this day. They had another 29 km to walk.
