It is unclear where the Valley of Baca (עֵ֣מֶק הַ֭בָּכָא) is. There is limited context in the verse or any other in The Bible to guess at where it is. The dominant theory is that it is one of a number of valleys in the Judean or Samarian highlands since it refers to people passing through it to make pilgrimage in Zion or Jerusalem.

There is an alternative theory that Baca is a reference to the original name of Mecca, but this mistakes the Hebrew root B-K-A with the Hebrew root B-K-H which are both pronounced the same way. (The former refers to Balsam Wood and the latter to Weeping.)
