La Ruta
The pueblo of Trincheras, Sonora is located near the Federal
Highway 2 between Santa Ana and Altar.  

About a mile west of the highway toll booths west of Santa
Ana, the road to Trincheras is marked by a sign and a red bus
stop  Turn south on that road, drive 22 kilometers (about 14
miles, keep an eye out for cattle), and you'll be in Trincheras.

Trincheras has a rich history and culture, including a terraced
hill that is an archaeological treasure made hundreds of years
ago by local inhabitants.  It was also home to 1850's
historical figure
Joaquin Murrieta.
