A museum of all the sacred art collected from all the missions in the Tarahumara was inaugurated on the 31st of July, 2003. The most famous 18th century work of the painter Miguel Correa is exhibited here. The architecture of the Loyola Museum is truly amazing and the most impressive in all of the Copper Canyon.

Globe Trekker - Baja California & Copper Canyon featuring Ian Wright
Intrepid traveler Ian Wright begins his journey in Baja California in the border town of Tijuana. This is the place where hundreds of thousands of Mexicans risk their lives every year attempting to cross into the United States. Ian is challenged to run through no-man's land and having survived the armed air and land patrol he begins hitching south on Baja's only highway.
After miles of uninterrupted cacti, Ian has a sea-spray shower at one of the world's best blowholes, and then ends the first part of his adventure at San Quintin - a typical Baja one-horse town. The only accommodation available in San Quintin is a faded hotel originally built for Hollywood stars.
After a short stop in the beautiful Bahia de Los Angeles, where travelers sleep in huts on the beach, Ian continues south on the back of a motorbike, through more desert landscapes to the mission oasis of San Ignacio. Here the over zealous religious imperialism of the Catholic missionaries is evident: the cemetery holds the remains of the indigenous people who refused to convert.
One of the highlights of Ian's journey is a whale watching trip with two local fishermen in Mulege. Not content with simply swimming around the tiny boat, the whales actually come close enough for Ian to touch them.
Ian also goes in searches of the perfect beach, experiences a true ranchero style dance - complete with a hangover the following morning, and enters into the spirit of a wild and hedonistic carnival at La Paz on Baja's southern tip.
The last part of Ian's journey involves a ferry ride east across the Sea of Cortez to mainland Mexico, where he ventures into the stunning Copper Canyon.
Here he meets real cowboys who give him very useful lessons on picking up senoritas. Finally, Ian climbs high into the mountains where he is privy to an ancient ceremony of the cave dwelling Tarahumara Indians - the ritualistic killing of a goat - something which has rarely been witnessed before by a white person.
Road to San Borja

El Valle de Mochogueachi es donde nace el imponente cañón del cobre, una maravilla natural poco conocida.
Formaciones rocosas, pinos y el estremecedor sonido del agua cayendo, son el espectáculo que presenta un caudal de treinta metros de altura ubicado al inicio de la barranca de Tararecua, en el Arroyo de san Ignacio. Aprecia la plenitud de la Cascada Rukíraso y de la naturaleza en el mirador.
El sendero es una encantadora mezcla de caminos de tierra; diviértete recorriéndolo en bicicleta de montaña o en una retadora caminata. Conoce las historias ancestrales que cuentan las pinturas rupestres dentro de las cuevas rarámuris.

Alójate en el rústico y acogedor Cusárare River Hotel y saborea la deliciosa comida preparada por manos tarahumaras. Alístate para contactar con la naturaleza a unos pasos.
En medio del aroma del bosque de pinos recorre a pie o en bicicleta una vereda hacia una de las más bellas cascadas de la Sierra Tarahumara. Atesora las imágenes de formaciones rocosas que rodean el curso del río y de las águilas surcando los azules cielos.
Observa en el mirador la caída permanente de treinta metros, la vista es impresionante. Toma aliento y baja 280 escalones mientras sientes la brisa que moja tu cuerpo. Si vas en invierno, verás la cascada congelada, un paisaje asombroso. Si llegas en verano, la encontrarás caudalosa y abundante.
