Locals will tell you that you can't hike it, that's a lie. The place opened up 4 years ago for hiking. ENRIQUE is the guide. Two hikes a day 8:15am and 4:15pm. Sundays only 8:15am. He's extremely nice but stern you WILL NEED A MASK. If you're allergic to dogs beware because you will Hike with them. As the hike go he will stop twice to give history about the area. And you'll feel amazing learning about the history of Cabo. He's been there for 30 years! He explains that the name Mt. Solmar is something he and the locals have been trying to change for some time now because it's incorrect. He wants the name of the mountain to reflect the history of the natives that arrived at this peninsula 700 years ago! It's supposed to be called Cerro del Vigia ! The view was the best part of my trip I'm so happy I went and did it. this is DEFINITELY a hidden gem that not even my friends that went there have said they done it. I want everyone to do it. This hike is a little bit strenuous, you will get on your hands to climb. Be aware of that so come light. i recorded the whole hike which I will be showing parts on my youtube (link on my profile) because I can't upload videos here. I recommend everyone to do this if you're looking for something fun, risky, and unique to do.…

This hike to the top of Mt. Solmar is a very unique Cabo adventure! Believe all of the posts that recommend firm sole footwear and plan on using your hands to hoist you up and keep you from sliding down, but well worth the effort. Current hikes must be guided by Enrique, and his current hours are every morning at 8:15am and all evenings except Sunday at 4:15pm for a great sunset Hike. The tour is free but tips are welcome or donations to feed the multiple dogs he cares for. The views are indeed spectacular!…

My husband and I decided to take this hike while we visited Cabo and it was hands down the best decision ever! The views were AMAZING! Enrique (the guide) is very knowledgeable and will help guide you every step of the way. To top it off this was FREE! They do not charge, but you can tip so don’t hesitate and take this hike, you will not regret it!!!! …

Based on previous posts we thought the start time was 0830. I dropped off my friend at 0825 and drove back to park the car. Apparently the new start time is 0825 according to the current gate sign on September 22 2020. We were going to call Enrique but in the rush I left my phone in the car, ran back to get it, returned and called. Enrique answered and was already on the hike and couldn't return to add us. He did ask if we could come back at 1815 for an evening hike (sunset was at 1915) but we had dinner reservations for 1815 and this was our last day in Cabo so we politely declined. He did recommend showing up at 0815 for the morning hike. Rule #1. Call Enrique to reconfirm the start time and when to arrive. See his phone number on the attached photo. Rule #2. Enrique leaves ON TIME. Five stars to Enrique for taking our call and offering a special evening hike. On our next trip to Cabo this hike is going to happen.…

Excellent and beautiful view from the top! Enrique is an amazing tour guide and the dogs were so fun-10 of them came with us! Every review I read said this was a strenuous hike and that was very accurate. Plan to use both hands to get up some places and bring water in a backpack. We tipped $5/person FYI. Highly recommend!!!…
