Trip Itinerary " El Coyote"

Meet up time is 3pm in Tecate at our secure paring lot (address will be emailed to you after registration and payment) 

We are introducing a new ride format. On most of our traditional 4 Day Baja trips we leave at 7am and cross the Mexican Border. On this Baja adventure we'll be leaving at 4pm and crossing over the border. Remember, it's still day light savings in Cali so yes, we'll be running at night on the first day all other days we'll be staring in the AM... Over 500 miles of Baja’s finest trails and a wide range of scenic terrain, it  will leave you breathless - The El Coyote,  sharing one of the last true off road frontiers.. 

Day 1 - 100ish miles. With just a short Highway drive at dusk (approximately 5 miles), we will hit the dirt and be on the trail. The first trail leads us through the Sierra De Juarez mountain range. This is some of the most spectacular scenery in Baja in the day time but remember nightfall will be creeping up on us fast. From Pine forests to desert oasis, this route will not disappoint - fast drifting corners with an occasional "G"Out will keep you on your toes. With time permitting we'll take a detour and check out the Laguna Hanson deep in the pine forests. Our destination for Day/night 1 will be the beautiful Horse Power Ranch, in Ensenada. When we arrive we'll grab a quick bite to eat before catching up on some sleep.

Day 2 150ish miles. 

The next morning will start bright and early with a group breakfast at HPR, then back on the trail for Day 2. From HPR we will head towards the Sierra Juarez mountain range for some sideways drifting, fast paced trails. We will be climbing in elevation as we weave through the mountains once again. After several rights, lefts and cattle guards the trails will open up to being smooth and fast paced, often used by Baja race organizations. This will give you a great idea of what some of the race terrain is like. The route will run about 75 miles to Valle La Trinidad and just before you drop out on to the Hwy the famous Goat Trail will need to be navigated. What at first looks very overwhelming with giant rocks, ruts off camber drops, this is where you'll put your trust into your UTV and let it do all the work. 

As we go through Valle LA Trinidad we top off the tanks with fuel and grab a quick snack at the local OXXO before heading up to Mike's Sky Ranch but only for a check up point as we'll keep pressing on over the summit to Rancho Meling for night 2. The terrain will be slower and more technical but very doable. 

Day 3 150ish miles. 

The next morning waking up to the roosters making a shit ton of noise, we'll grab a bite to eat fresh from the ranch and be on our way. The chosen trail for the day will be heading down to the Pacific, taking some not so used trails. From Meling Rancho to Camalu the trails can be quite challenging but also very fun. At times you'll have to take it nice and slow as we navigate over rocks, washes and extremely tight turns. Eventually we'll reach HYW 1  for fuel and lunch. From Camalu the route points North and today we ride the Pacific Ocean most of the way up to Ensenada. This 80 mile section is amazing and has everything Baja has to offer. Hard packed trails, beaches and occasional silt baths are common on this route. We'll end the day at the Estero Beach hotel in Ensenada for the Night.

Day 4 100ish miles.

Leaving Estero Beach Hotel and driving through the city of Ensenada back up to the mountains, we will be making our way North, back up to Tecate and enjoying some wide open, fast pine forest trails. Talk about fun! This route is approximately 90 miles offroad and will take us once again from Ojos Negros to Tecate. We stop for our  famous group picture then head to the border crossing in Tecate. We'll say our final good byes to Baja and cross back over the border into the USA. Mission Accomplished. Safe, sound and with lots of great memories of our trip!
