- Rancho Ecologico Sol De Mayo - The journey begins with a picturesque drive into the Sierra de la Laguna, where the coastline gradually transitions into desert mountains, cactus forests, and tranquil ranch communities nestled within Baja California Sur.
At Fox Canyon, the trail follows rocky paths and canyon sections leading to the Sol de Mayo waterfall. Without the pace of a larger group, the path feels more serene and connected to the landscape itself — footsteps resonate through the canyon while freshwater pools emerge between granite rock formations.
Upon reaching the waterfall, the experience naturally becomes more leisurely. Some visitors swim beneath the falls, while others relax by the water, listening to the sounds of the canyon. Later, a meal at a local Baja-style restaurant concludes the day before the return drive through the desert vistas of Baja Sur.
