Trail Overview
This off-road route offers a scenic journey from Mexico Highway 2, meandering around the El Corizo Dam before connecting with Mexico Highway 3. Suitable for any high-clearance 2WD vehicle, the initial stretch from Highway 2 presents a less picturesque landscape, with some areas marred by roadside litter. However, as you approach the dam and lake, the drive becomes increasingly charming, offering more rewarding views. There are several designated areas where you can spend the day or camp overnight, though these typically require a modest fee. The lake is a popular spot for swimming and fishing, adding to the appeal of the route.
