The California Rock Art Foundation is pleased to announce limited openings on two trips scheduled for
spring 2023 in Baja California Sur, Mexico. In collaboration with our partners at Saddling South, we have organized two extraordinary trips into the Sierra de San Francisco in the heart of the
Great Mural Rock Painting Tradition.
The Santa Teresa trip is suited for beginner riders who are in good physical shape. This venture offers visits to sites including Cueva de las Flechas, Santa Teresa I, Santa Teressa II, and Boca de San Julio, among others.
The Parral Canyon expedition is for those seeking a more intense experience in the canyon. This trip is best suited for those who are comfortable riding and happy to rough it in one of the most remote mountain wilderness areas on the peninsula. The venture into Parral Canyon offers visits to sites including El Corralito, Cueva de la Serpiente, and Mono Alto, among others.

These all-inclusive adventures depart from and end in Loreto, Baja California Sur, a lovely coastal town located on the Sea of Cortez. The journey will take our guests into the Sierra de San Francisco, and will offer a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The trips involve visits to the nearby ranchos and visits to some of the most spectacular rock art in the world in the rugged mountain wilderness known to some as the Grand Canyon of Baja, Mexico.
Travel to the canyon sites requires riding astride mules and walking on rugged, steep, rocky terrain, along exposed canyon trails. Participants should be in decent physical condition to attend. First time rider? No problem. The mules are
sure-footed and not easily spooked, and the experienced vaqueros (cowboys) and guides will be there to assist you.
Pending full trip occupancy, your trip will also be guided by a California Rock Art Foundation archaeologist who will point out sites along the way and field questions and discussions regarding rock art, archaeology, anthropology, Native Baja Cochimí ethnography and history, and Spanish contact history.
Bring friends or come solo. These trips are tons of fun, very social, and offer unique and remarkable experiences including spectacular rock art, world class vistas and scenery, exceptional archaeology, and traditional local vaquero culture.
Grab your clothes and sleeping bag, and meet us in Loreto, Baja California Sur for the trip of a lifetime.
