Trail Overview
This off-road trail begins at the Cascabel MTB area, where several other trails converge. Named after the rattlesnake, "Cascabel" is a reminder to be cautious, especially during the hot season when these reptiles are plentiful. The trail initially runs alongside a large farm, following the fence line before crossing the farm's boundary. Though it resembles a two-track road at first, human-made barriers soon block the passage of four-wheeled vehicles, making it accessible only to motorcycles. Mountain bikers often follow the trail for about 100 yards before veering left onto a narrower single track. After descending beyond the farm, the road turns into an overgrown two-track before transitioning into a well-graded path that meanders through uninhabited rolling hills, although signs of development are visible on the horizon. Further along, the trail passes through two open gates and more farmland, with the last section cutting across private property--so it's crucial to stay on the designated path that many utilize to get to other destinations along the route. This route serves as a scenic off-road connection between Vicente Guerrero and San Quintin.

Difficulty
While it's technically possible to cross this route with a 4WD vehicle, two man-made barriers make it clear that this is not the intended use, which is why it's designated for motorcycles only. Aside from one steep, rocky section, the trail is generally easy to navigate for any motorcycle.
