Northern Mexico Destinations

The deserts and dunes of the north extend across the states of Chihuahua, Coahuila, Sonora, Durango, Nuevo Leon, Tamaulipas and Zacatecas, where maximum summer temperatures range between 32º C and 36º C (90º F and 97º F) and winter lows drop below 0º C (32º F). The western and eastern mountain ranges of the Sierra Madre stretch across the region as well.
