Cenote Jungle Adventure: ATV, Zipline & Sacred Cenote Near Puerto Morelos
Hit the jungle north of Cancun for a four-hour loop of ATVs, ziplines and a swim in a sacred cenote. Fast dirt tracks, treetop flight and cool freshwater give you a compact, adrenaline-forward taste of the Yucatán’s karst country.
The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive hydrated
Start well-hydrated — the mix of sun, dust and adrenaline depletes electrolytes quickly; bring a reusable bottle to refill at the park.
Wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes
ATV trails are rocky and can be muddy; closed shoes protect your feet when mounting, dismounting and walking the cenote edge.
Mind the weight limits
Ziplines and ATVs have strict limits (270 lb for ziplines, 300 lb for ATVs); confirm weights at booking to avoid denied access.
Protect the cenote
Use biodegradable sunscreen and insect repellent only — oils and chemicals can harm the fragile aquifer ecosystem.

Conservation Note
Cenote ecosystems are fragile — using biodegradable products, staying on marked trails and following guide instructions helps protect groundwater and endemic species.
The Yucatán’s cenotes are collapse sinkholes in porous limestone that supplied Maya communities; many were also ceremonial sites tied to rain and fertility rites.
