Canopy Zipline in the Jungle from Puerto Vallarta — Rancho Capomo 9-Line Adventure

The Experience
Before You Go
Secure loose items
Carry a small clip or use the provided locker—phones and sunglasses can fall on faster lines.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy sneakers or hiking shoes improve footwork on platforms and during short hikes between zips.
Hydrate before you go
Bring a 1‑liter water bottle—tropical humidity and adrenaline dehydrate quickly during the 4‑hour outing.
Listen to the guide
Brake technique and proper body position are taught on site—follow directions to avoid abrupt stops on lines.
