The Experience
Before You Go
Bring a change of clothes
You will get dusty and will likely take a river dip; pack dry clothes and a waterproof bag for electronics.
Hydrate and eat a light meal
Drink water before the tour and bring a small bottle; heavy meals can make ATV bumps uncomfortable.
Secure loose items
Use a small, zippered pack and leave jewelry behind; phones and cameras can fall or get splattered with mud.
Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes
ATV terrain is rocky and the zipline platforms demand stable footing—no sandals.

Conservation Note

The coastal Sierra Madre foothills have long supported small farming and fishing communities; canopy tourism grew here in recent decades as an alternative income that protects forested slopes.
