Location
ArtBoretum is located in the town of Chalmita, within the Ocuilan Municipality in the State of Mexico.
Because of its characteristic isolation deep within the forest, it requires some knowledge of the dirt roads. So, for the first visit we have a meeting point for individuals or groups in the Municipal Plaza of Chalmita.
