n/aBoca de Salto
Boca de Salto packs about fifteen rappels into two sections, including a 220 foot final drop, through dark rock formations laced with greenery. The approach is an easy roadside walk, but the exit demands real bushwhacking back up out of the gorge.
Agua Blanca de Iturbide, Hidalgo Unknown flood -
3C RCañón de Tolantongo
This is a gorgeous and deep canyon that is accessed through a shallow cave at the top of La Gloria Tolantango. It is an out and back trip that will require setting some pasamanos and ascending back up a couple rappels.
Cardonal, Hidalgo (localities San Cristobal and Tolantongo) Unknown flood -
3B RChiflon Integral
The granddaddy canyon of Hidalgo: roughly 26 rappels and miles of swift water through the Otomi Tepehua range, broken into named sections so smaller teams can do parts.

Agua Blanca de Iturbide, Hidalgo High flood -
n/aParaiso Escondido
Paraiso Escondido cuts through volcanic breccia with mossy green walls and four to six bolted rappels depending on the season, the biggest a 72 foot drop through a waterfall. The water runs cold year round, and the source calls for a wetsuit with a hood and booties in winter.

n/aSan Martin (Hidalgo)
San Martin is a short, steep canyon with road access at both the top and bottom, so the hike in is minimal for five rappels, the longest 35 meters. Most of the drops run right in the flow.
