The Transpeninsular Highway, part of the Pan-American Highway, spans over 1,000 miles from the city of Tijuana, through the desolate beauty of the Sonoran Desert, to the picturesque town of Cabo San Lucas at the southern tip of the peninsula. The road passes through the Valle de los Cirios nature reserve, renowned for the presence of gigantic Cirio plants, also known as "boojum trees" or "flaming trees."
Baja California has only one main highway, named "Mexico 1", which was paved as recently as 1973. Driving along its total length of 1700 km, you can reach all the designated destinations while enjoying unique and unforgettable landscapes along the way.
