Punta Cana Buggy and Zipline Adventure: Anamuya Jungle Ziplines & Off‑Road Buggies
Launch through the treetops and skid across forest tracks on a Punta Cana half-day that combines 2,800 meters of ziplines with an off-road buggy tour to the Anamuya River. Expect high-speed cables, a hanging bridge, a river dip (weather permitting) and a coffee tasting back at the ranch.
The Experience
Before You Go
Secure loose items
Use zippered pockets or leave phones and sunglasses in a locker—anything that flies off at 65 km/h won’t be recoverable.
Wear closed-toe shoes and long pants
Buggies kick up dust and zipline platforms can be abrasive; durable footwear and pants protect legs and ankles.
Hydrate and time mornings
Bring a refillable water bottle and aim for an early slot when winds are calmer and light is better for photos.
Check river conditions
The river swim is weather dependent—call before you go in rainy season to confirm it’s safe for a dip.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Hanging bridge viewpoint—quiet early morning vantage for canopy photos
- •Hacienda coffee tasting corner—small-batch roasting and local chocolate sampling
Wildlife
- •Tropical birds (kingfishers, parakeets)
- •Green iguanas sunning on branches
Conservation Note
Operators emphasize guided routes and limited-impact infrastructure; stick to trails and avoid feeding wildlife to reduce disturbance and preserve local ecosystems.
The Anamuya area reflects a blend of indigenous Taíno land use and later colonial agriculture; hacienda-style ranches were often central points for local trade and gathering.
Photographer's Notes
