Holy Saturday hike is an option, too

Tradition has given way to change

A spectacular change could be coming to Mt. Cristo Rey

Holy Week tradition returns

Tune in this Friday for a special ABC segment hosted by John Quiñones celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month featuring the Borderland.

Bowie Bakery staff posed for pictures and gifted John Quiñones and the ABC News crew with a bag of their best pan dulce for the road.

One El Pasoan has captured the most spectacular photo of the lunar eclipse appearing centered behind Mt. Cristo Rey.

El Paso is like a dusty jewel, in the middle of the southwest desert, but once cleaned off, reveals all of its bright and beautiful facets.

The traditional hike up Mt. Cristo Rey during Holy Week as a sign of their faith and their devotion is another casualty of the coronavirus outbreak.

The climb happens October 27. Check out the parking details, hours of the climb, and the one thing you cannot bring or you won't be able to climb.

The annual event is held to commemorate the completion of the monument, as well as to celebrate the Christian feast of Christ the King.

Mt. Cristo Rey is a hallowed, and sometimes harrowing, El Paso landmark. One family found out the hard way that it can be very dangerous.
