The Experience

Before You Go

Wear closed-toe shoes

Secure, grippy shoes keep you stable on platforms and during short hikes between lines.

Bring a refillable water bottle

Hydration is important in tropical heat; water is provided but having your own bottle speeds refills.

Secure cameras and phones

Use a wrist strap or chest-mounted camera—loose devices can fall on long zips.

Start early

Morning slots are cooler and often clearer for views and bird activity.

Conservation Note

Guides emphasize staying on platforms and trails, not disturbing wildlife, and operators often follow routine equipment checks to reduce environmental and safety impacts.

The Anamuya foothills sit within eastern Hispaniola’s uplands, an area shaped by colonial-era agriculture and local rural communities.
