The park showcases extraordinary rock formations that have been shaped by wind and water erosion. The park was created by presidential decree in 1939 encompassing 4,772 hectares to protect the endemic flora and fauna. The park is characterized by pine and oak forest. The park is one of the few areas in Mexico that are inhabited by black bear. The park is frequented by residents of the state capital city. The area is popular with rock climbers, hikers, and campers; there are 53 km of roads for hiking and mountain biking. Camping including backcountry camping is permitted and there are rental cabins available. Access to the park is by federal highway number 45 that goes from Chihuahua to Ciudad Juárez. HistoryThe Cumbres de Majalca National Park was created by the federal government on September 1, 1939. The protected zone encompassed an area of 4,772 hectares (11,790 acres). The park was created to help preserve natural habitat for many species of animals and plants. After the creation of the national park during the mid 20th century, the park underwent a reforestation of different coniferous species.[2] GeographyCumbres de Majalca National Park is located in the central part of the state of Chihuahua near the city of Chihuahua. The park is found in the Sierra de Majalca mountain range a subdivision of the Sierra Madre Occidental. Mountain peaks in the park reach an elevation of 2,600 meters above sea level. The park is part of the dominant Transition Bavícora-Bustillos Transition which is characterized by many small elevated valleys surrounded by volcanic mountains. The mountains in the park are not of notable rank in the state, but the highest peaks in the park are: Cerro Las Escobas, Cerro La Puerta, Cerro Los Almíceres, and Cerro del Agua. The park is almost completely covered by volcanic rocks that have been shaped into amazing formations by wind and water erosion. Sierra de Majalca is the point of origin of the Sacramento River that flows towards the state capital city. The Sacramento River empties into the Chuvíscar River before reaching Chihuahua. ClimateAccording to the Köppen climate classification, the park has two different climates. A (BSk) semiarid climate occurs in the lower elevations in the park where temperatures can reach {{convert|35|C|F}} in the summer and temperatures fluctuate largely in the winter from cool to hot. The steppe zones in the park have a rainy season at the end of the summer and few winter snowfalls. A (Cwa) humid subtropical with hot summers and cold winters occur in the higher elevations where temperatures can fall to {{convert|-10|C|F}} in the winter and averages 112 days under {{convert|0|C|F}}. During the winter in the higher elevations, snowstorms come frequently increasing in the at the end of the season. {{Weather box|location = Majalca (1951-2010) |metric first = yes |single line = Yes |temperature colour = pastel |Jan record high C = 29.0 |Feb record high C = 28.0 |Mar record high C = 30.0 |Apr record high C = 33.0 |May record high C = 35.0 |Jun record high C = 36.0 |Jul record high C = 38.0 |Aug record high C = 34.0 |Sep record high C = 34.0 |Oct record high C = 32.0 |Nov record high C = 31.0 |Dec record high C = 29.0 |Jan high C = 14.4 |Feb high C = 15.6 |Mar high C = 19.0 |Apr high C = 22.2 |May high C = 25.1 |Jun high C = 27.9 |Jul high C = 26.3 |Aug high C = 25.0 |Sep high C = 23.4 |Oct high C = 21.7 |Nov high C = 18.4 |Dec high C = 15.6 |year high C = 21.2 |Jan mean C = 4.8 |Feb mean C = 5.6 |Mar mean C = 9.0 |Apr mean C = 12.3 |May mean C = 15.4 |Jun mean C = 19.0 |Jul mean C = 18.8 |Aug mean C = 17.9 |Sep mean C = 16.0 |Oct mean C = 12.1 |Nov mean C = 8.2 |Dec mean C = 5.6 |year mean C = 12.1 |Jan low C = -4.7 |Feb low C = -4.4 |Mar low C = -1.0 |Apr low C = 2.4 |May low C = 5.7 |Jun low C = 10.0 |Jul low C = 11.2 |Aug low C = 10.7 |Sep low C = 8.5 |Oct low C = 2.6 |Nov low C = -2.0 |Dec low C = -4.4 |year low C = 2.9 |Jan record low C = -18.0 |Feb record low C = -18.0 |Mar record low C = -15.0 |Apr record low C = -9.0 |May record low C = -4.0 |Jun record low C = -1.0 |Jul record low C = 1.0 |Aug record low C = 4.0 |Sep record low C = -3.0 |Oct record low C = -10.0 |Nov record low C = -15.0 |Dec record low C = -16.0 |precipitation colour= green |Jan precipitation mm = 14.2 |Feb precipitation mm = 9.9 |Mar precipitation mm = 9.2 |Apr precipitation mm = 12.1 |May precipitation mm = 22.8 |Jun precipitation mm = 66.4 |Jul precipitation mm = 151.7 |Aug precipitation mm = 155.9 |Sep precipitation mm = 125.5 |Oct precipitation mm = 26.6 |Nov precipitation mm = 14.8 |Dec precipitation mm = 12.2 |year precipitation mm = 621.3 |unit precipitation days= 0.1 mm |Jan precipitation days = 3.2 |Feb precipitation days = 2.5 |Mar precipitation days = 1.9 |Apr precipitation days = 2.0 |May precipitation days = 3.7 |Jun precipitation days = 7.6 |Jul precipitation days = 14.2 |Aug precipitation days = 14.4 |Sep precipitation days = 11.2 |Oct precipitation days = 3.7 |Nov precipitation days = 2.8 |Dec precipitation days = 2.8 |year precipitation days= 70.0 |source 1 = Servicio Meteorologico Nacional[3] |date=August 2010 }} Flora and faunaPine forests are found from the high elevations to the transition zone between the mountains and the steppe.
