Mision Santa Maria Crossover

Trail Overview

This off-road trail offers a practical, if not particularly scenic, alternative for traveling from Bahia San Quintin to the popular Hotel Mision Santa Maria area without using Highway One, allowing you to stay on dirt the entire way. Starting from the hotel side, the route begins on graded dirt roads but gradually transitions to less-traveled two-track paths. Around the halfway point, the trail becomes faint and overgrown, though it regains definition as it meanders through a field of dry vegetation. As you near the end, the landscape becomes greener, but the terrain shifts to deep sand, with the final mile presenting six-inch sand as the route connects to the Bahia San Quintin Trail.
