GRAB YOUR SOMBRERO and join us for a glimpse of traditional ranch life little changed since early Spanish settlement! Let experienced guides take you into the spectacular mountains of OLD CALIFORNIA. Riding through colorful cactus garden valleys and into lush palm springs you’ll meet some of the wonderful local folks of the remote ranches of Baja.
Visit the renowned World Heritage Rock Art sites and famous roadless ranches, near the village of San Ignacio in the heart of the peninsula.
Since 1988 we’ve been running great trips for small groups in the outback desert - unique journeys into the heart of the sierra and its historical ranch culture. For nearly 300 years the only way to travel these mountains had been on horseback. It’s still the best!

Other young Mexican artists are local documentalists with interest in the cultural history and conservation realm in Baja. Erik will be present to discuss highlights of the productions. Trudi will describe an historic documentary film, Dario’s Dream, and Antigua California Heritage Appreciation.
