How to get to Santiago and the Sol De Mayo Waterfall Trailhead

Santiago From Cabo

The drive from Cabo to Santiago is between an hour and an hour and fifteen minutes, depending on the area of Los Cabos.

To drive from San Jose del Cabo, head north on Highway 1 for about an hour until you see the sign for Santiago (after about 50 minutes). Turn left toward Santiago and drive about five minutes into town.

To drive from Cabo San Lucas, drive toward San Jose del Cabo and get on Highway 1 North (you may enter San Jose on Highway 1, depending on where you’re coming from). After about an hour and ten minutes, you’ll see the sign for Santiago and turn left, driving five minutes into two.

Santiago From La Paz

Sol Del Mayo is sometimes called the La Paz waterfall hike, but the waterfall is actually about two hours outside of La Paz. It’s certainly worth visiting Sol De Mayo if you’re in La Paz, though. Follow these directions to reach Santiago:

There are two ways to drive toward the Sierra Laguna mountains from La Paz: Highway 1 and Highway 286. There isn’t much of a time difference, but check your GPS to see which route is faster based on traffic and your exact starting point.

Highway 1 and 286 meet near La Venta, converging into Highway 1. Keep driving south on Highway 1 through Los Barriles until you see the sign for Santiago after about two hours of driving. From there you can drive into town, which takes about five minutes.

Be warned: some sections of the road to Santiago are very windy and curvy. Be careful as you drive and ensure you’re driving in full daylight in both directions.

Santiago to the Sol De Mayo Trailhead

I recommend pre-loading Google Maps directions to Cañón de la Zorra before you leave Santiago as the internet is spotty outside the city, and the drive can be a bit confusing.

Keep in mind that that the drive to the trailhead on a dirt road, so drive carefully. You don’t need four-wheel drive, though. I drove to Fox Canyon in a sedan with no problems.
