The sign showing 80 KM to La Ballena is wrong, it's 38 miles or 61 KM.

Yep, and the distance to "ExMission de Guadalupe" is not 27 kms (16.7 mi.) but a tiny bit less at 25 kms (15.5 mi.). The sad part is that when you reach the mission sign, you still cannot see or get to it easily!



The mission is uphill, to the left of this sign but the road at this sign only passes a barb-wired closed gate. Go ahead from this sign to the La Presa sign.



Just past this sign, it take the road to the left, through an unlocked gate and up to the mission area, which is on the other side of those palms.



Walk to the left and uphill.
When you see this, you are standing inside the mission church:
