Boca de la Sierra, Mountain village in Los Cabos, Mexico.
Boca de la Sierra is a mountain village in Los Cabos positioned at 310 meters elevation, surrounded by granite peaks from two major ranges. The Sierra de la Victoria and Sierra de La Laguna chains dominate the landscape, creating steep valleys and deep canyons throughout the region.
The village developed as a settlement along the natural passage through San Bernardo Canyon, one of seven major canyons that shape the region. This geographic gateway made it a natural meeting point between the highlands and the valleys below.
Residents maintain farming practices passed down through generations and welcome visitors through guided hikes and outdoor explorations. These activities have become woven into daily village life, keeping traditional knowledge alive while opening the place to travelers.
From San José del Cabo, the drive takes about 50 minutes on the Transpeninsular highway, passing through Miraflores before arriving. The terrain is mountainous with trails and paths that require sturdy footwear for comfortable exploration.
The place features natural pools cascading down the mountainside, creating places to swim and cool off. A stone path running through a central lake divides the water into separate sections for different uses.
