The well-designed highway that drops into the Mexicali Valley offers impressive views and access to a number of interesting locations. The town of La Rumorosa has Native American cave paintings, while Laguna Salada is a vast dry lake southwest of Mexicali. The Morelos Dam offers great views of the city and its natural surroundings, and the nearby mountain range, the Sierra de Juárez, is ideal for mountaineering, hiking, photography, biking, camping, and other outdoor activities.
