About Sierra de la Laguna Biosphere Reserve

Sierra de la Laguna Biosphere Reserve
 

Situated at the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula, the Sierra de la Laguna Biosphere Reserve spans a range of ecosystems, from dry desert lowlands to verdant pine-oak forests in its higher altitudes. The reserve was established to protect its rich biodiversity, which includes endemic species of plants and animals. Among the most striking features is the contrast between the arid desert and the lush, verdant landscapes found at higher elevations. The area is popular for hiking, bird watching, and exploring its numerous trails and natural water pools. Given its isolation, it offers a truly remote experience, attracting those interested in both adventure and relaxation. Historical traces of ancient indigenous communities also add cultural depth to the natural beauty of the area.
