Trail Overview

This road begins in El Arco, a seemingly abandoned mining town with decaying buildings, remnants of machinery, and few signs of human activity. As you navigate through the canyon, the trail transitions into a wide, flat, and well-maintained road, offering a scenic and enjoyable drive. While washboard sections are common, airing down your tires can greatly improve comfort. Along the way, you'll encounter abundant desert wildlife, including rabbits, small animals darting across the road, and a variety of birds. The road concludes at a four-way intersection that connects to the Mision Santa Gertrudis route, where the terrain becomes more challenging and requires greater technical skill to navigate.
