Where the Sonoran Desert meets the Sea of Cortez, singletrack trails weave through forests of ancient cacti before dropping to hidden coves of crystalline turquoise water. In this land of contrasts, mornings spent climbing rugged mountain paths end with fresh-caught fish tacos in tiny beach towns, while afternoons bring encounters with playful sea lions and nights in eco-lodges where the stars seem close enough to touch.
¡BIENVENIDOS A MÉXICO !
Meet us at the Los Cabos airport, where we’ll immediately head for the colorful Pacific coastal village of Todos Santos. The only officially designated Pueblo Mágico in Baja, Todos Santos is a vibrant study in contrasts: dirt roads and boutique hotels, ancient cacti and crashing surf, sunbaked hills and swaying palm groves, tamale vendors and cocktail bars. We’ll get settled into our hotel, an impeccably restored historical building right in the center of town that we’ll call home for the next two nights and then head out for a short sunset shakeout through a palm oasis and onto a gorgeous beach. That evening we’ll officially welcome you to Baja with introductions, a multi-course farm-to-table dining experience by one of the top chefs in Mexico and details on our first official run, happening the following morning!
Today we depart the coast and head for El Triunfo, a historical gold and silver mining town nestled within the rugged Sierra de la Laguna mountains. Once the most populated place in Baja California Sur, today the town has just over 300 residents and nearly as many varieties of cactus – many of which we’ll spot during our run! The singletrack route will lead us away from town, through a veritable forest of cacti before looping back to the historic mine and, eventually, our hotel. We’ll have lunch at a great little local spot, then enjoy downtime at our quirky, cozy cabanas back in El Triunfo. Later that afternoon we’ll take a short drive down a bumpy dirt road to an even smaller town for a guided walk through an amazing cactus sanctuary and a hearty homemade feast of traditional interior specialties.
Enjoy a relaxed breakfast before we pack up and take a short drive back to the east coast of the peninsula for a mid-morning run that goes for miles and miles along a quiet dirt road with sweeping ocean views (and high potential for whale sightings!) the entire time. We’ll finish in Los Barriles, which happens to be home to one of our favorite little taco shops. Once fed, rehydrated and sufficiently chilled out we will head further south, leaving civilization behind and traveling through what feels like the middle of nowhere, where the roads turn to sand and the ocean views stretch as far as the eye can see. Juuuust when you begin to question where on earth we’re taking you, we’ll arrive at our home-away-from-home for the final two nights and, trust us… you won’t ever want to leave.
If there’s anything worth leaving ‘home’ for, this grand finale of a run is it! After breakfast we’ll head for Cabo Pulmo, a tiny beach village and national park that is home to both the last living hard coral reef in North America and a spectacular singletrack mountain trail network. This run includes a fantastic sampler of these trails, which will involve some challenging climbs, unique desert flora and 360* views of the ocean and surrounding mountain wilderness. It finishes – naturally – at another beachfront taco shop where we’ll refuel and relax before heading back to our ecolodge for downtime and a final multi-course sunset dinner above the ocean.
