Whoop Line 250

Trail Overview

Whoop Line 250 runs through a brutal stretch of the Baja 250 course between VCP 9 and VCP 12, serving up an endless series of deep, uneven whoops carved into sandy desert terrain. The trail is loose and fast in places, with scattered small rocks that force quick corrections and suspension discipline. It winds through classic Baja desert, surrounded by creosote, cactus, and tall ocotillos stretching toward the sun. While there are unfortunate signs of illegal dumping along the way, the big payoff comes in the form of striking views--rolling out toward the Sea of Cortez as you approach San Felipe, with the Baja mountain ranges shrinking behind you.
