Loreto
Mountain Trails Pack Trip Itinerary
Day 1 – arrive Loreto.
We’ll meet you at the airport, get settled
into a hotel in town and have an orientation
meeting. Dinner on your own as you stroll the
old cobbled historic center of town.
Days 2 - 8 We’ll meet
you for breakfast and head for the hills to
our trail head. Meet the mounts and our local
packers.. then, ride off to discover the back
roads and trails into Baja’s hidden oases.
You’ll be surprised to see ponds, creeks
and springs tucked away in steep sided canyons.
Ranching friends have led us to wonderful pools
in the desert on centuries old routes their
ancestors have used for travel in the rugged
mountains; we’ll take you to a few of
these local treasures, on our mid winter exploratory
ride. We’ll visit remote old ranch sites,
and some working ranches in the outback. During
citrus season we ride away from old garden sites
with saddlebags stuffed with oranges; and on
ranch visits we often share meals of homemade
tamales, tortillas, and famous Baja machaca
tacos we can later tuck away as “trail
food”. Guests rate this trip as one of
the best ever for a true taste of Baja.
Day 9 - We spend the last
night out in the quaint village of San Javier;
the best preserved of the El Camino Real missions.
Beautiful gardens and a spectacular historic
monument grace the single cobbled street of
town.
Day 10 - We’ll ride
back to our local ranch base, bid good bye to
the guides and mules, then head back to Loreto
for a hot shower in a comfy hotel room and a
fun evening farewell dinner.
Day 11 – Departure day.
Your guide will pre-arrange a taxi back to your
departing flight. Buen Viaje ! We hope to see
you again in Baja!
