Extreme Zipline in Punta Cana: Mountain-Top Zips with Panoramic Views
Soar above Punta Cana’s inland ridges on long, mountain-top ziplines that open out to wide valley views. This 3–4 hour adventure pairs professional guides with accessible thrills for first-timers and adrenaline-seekers alike.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sneakers or trail shoes keep your feet secure on platforms and during short hikes between lines.
Bring a lightweight rain shell
Tropical showers are common—pack a compact, breathable shell to stay comfortable between runs.
Secure loose items
Use a zippered pocket or operator-provided locker; phones and hats can be lost on high-speed zips.
Hydrate before and after
Heat and adrenaline increase fluid loss—drink water before arrival and take the bottled water offered.

The eastern Dominican landscape was long inhabited by Taíno communities; later colonial agriculture shaped the inland plots visible below the ridgelines.
