Caduaño Zipline Adventure: Flight Over Los Cabos Desert Oasis
Launch from timber platforms above arroyo beds and native cacti on a small-group zipline through Caduaño’s desert oasis. This 3.5-hour tour blends adrenaline with on-route natural history and reliable pickup from Cabo hotels.
The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate before you go
Desert air is deceptive — drink at least 500 ml before departure and use the bottled water provided between lines.
Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes
Expect short hikes and rocky approaches between platforms; sneakers or light hiking shoes with good traction are best.
Mind the weight/age limits
Maximum weight 100 kg (220 lb) and minimum age 7 — disclose weight accurately at booking to ensure proper harness fit.
Protect your skin and eyes
Bring SPF, a hat for the transfer vehicle, and sunglasses with a strap to keep them secure while zipping.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Highest platform overlook with views across the arroyo toward the Sierra de la Laguna foothills
- •A short guide-led stop that highlights elephant trees and seasonal wildflowers after wetter winters
Wildlife
- •Desert fox (zorrita)
- •Varied endemic cacti and migratory birds like the verdin
Conservation Note
Operators keep group sizes small and emphasize ‘leave no trace’ practices; water is scarce seasonally, so respecting trails and not disturbing plant root zones helps protect fragile microhabitats.
The paths cut through ranching lands and traditional trade routes that linked inland Baja to the coast; the foothills contain remnants of early settlement water-harvesting practices.
Photographer's Notes
- • Highest zipline launch platform (40 m)
- • A landing platform overlooking the arroyo and cardón grove
- • Transfer vehicle viewpoints on the approach road
