Kick up dust on a private 25 km ATV loop that leads to Los Cabos’ ‘second arch.’ Short, fast, and scenic—this two-hour ride pairs coastal panoramas with quiet private tracks minutes from Cabo San Lucas.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You rev into desert air, dust lifting in your wake as a line of Honda 420s threads a one-way private road toward a seaworn arch that most visitors glimpse only from boats. The trail climbs over scrub-studded ridges, opens to Pacific views, then drops toward a viewpoint that frames the lesser-known “second arch” near Cabo San Lucas.

History
Rancho properties around Cabo grew from 19th-century ranching and fishing settlements; private ranch roads in the area now offer controlled access to coastal viewpoints.
Conservation
Riders are asked to stay on designated routes to protect slow-growing desert plants and native wildlife; limiting noise and avoiding off-route riding reduces erosion and habitat damage.
