LET'S GO TO BAJA!

January 2026 (exact dates TBD)

This seven-day Baja cycling tour follows a well-planned itinerary that blends challenging rides with scenic beauty and cultural experiences. Starting in Tecate, riders traverse the rolling hills and vineyards of Valle de Guadalupe before reaching the coastal city of Ensenada. From there, the route continues south through remote landscapes, passing through small villages and resupply points like Emiliano Zapata and El Rosario. Each day covers an average of 80–100 miles, with well-timed stops at local eateries, gas stations, and markets for refueling. Strategic transfers help connect key sections, ensuring that cyclists experience the most breathtaking and rewarding parts of Baja while maximizing time for rest and recovery at carefully selected accommodations, including boutique hotels, Airbnbs, and campsites.

 

As the journey progresses, riders venture deeper into Baja’s rugged terrain, from the dramatic rock formations of Cataviña to the tranquil oasis of San Ignacio. The latter half of the tour hugs the coastline of the Sea of Cortez, with stops in Mulegé and Loreto, where cyclists can take in stunning ocean views and enjoy fresh seafood. The final leg moves inland toward Ciudad Constitución, marking the culmination of a ride that showcases Baja’s diverse landscapes—from desert plains to lush coastal havens. This itinerary balances endurance cycling with cultural immersion, offering an unforgettable mix of adventure, local flavors, and breathtaking scenery, all supported by well-planned transfers and accommodations to ensure a smooth and enjoyable journey.
