This is a mountain-road trip, not the coast highway

From Puerto Escondido, the route first heads toward Pochutla and then turns north onto Federal Route 175. The climb involves sustained curves, elevation gain and weather that can change quickly in the mountains. OAXWAY therefore avoids presenting a fixed arrival time as a guarantee; the practical schedule is confirmed with the operator for the requested date.

If you are sensitive to winding roads

Route 175 can be uncomfortable for travelers prone to motion sickness. Choose a front seat when practical, avoid a heavy meal immediately before departure and tell the team if you may need a short stop. For broader planning, OAXWAY's motion-sickness guide explains the route characteristics without giving medication dosing advice.
