An evening that pairs a cultural stroll through Todos Santos with a 4-mile ridge hike along the Pacific. Learn local history, scramble rocky trail sections, and finish atop the ridge for a sweeping sunset.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
By late afternoon the Pacific sharpens into a silver edge and the ridge above Todos Santos takes on a living silhouette. The trail begins with a guided walk through the Pueblo Mágico’s streets — adobe facades, mission-era stones, and gallery doors — before moving onto a 4-mile multi-trail route that climbs toward open coastal scrub. Wind pushes across the slope like a timely companion; the ocean dares you to look away.
