Punta Cana Zipline Adventure: 6,888 Feet of Jungle Flight and a 700m Plunge
Strap in and launch over 6,888 feet of double line through the Dominican countryside. This Punta Cana zipline pairs a safari-style transfer with a longest run of 700 meters—fast, accessible, and wrapped in the rhythms of tropical lowland forest.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear secure, closed-toe shoes
Sneakers with a good grip are required for safe landings and platform transitions.
Bring a tethered camera or mount
Loose phones and sunglasses aren’t allowed—use a wrist strap or chest mount for action shots.
Choose a morning slot
Early departures mean cooler temperatures, calmer lines, and clearer views.
Hydrate and protect skin
Apply reef-safe sunscreen and insect repellent before departure and carry a small water bottle.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Small roadside stands near the start sell fresh fruit juices and local frituras worth trying after your run.
- •Ask guides about a nearby freshwater spring used by locals for cooling off—it's usually quiet and photogenic.
Wildlife
- •Cuban iguana and green anole lizards
- •Tropical vexing birds like the palmchat and various migratory warblers
Conservation Note
Operators encourage leaving no trace and use established paths to limit forest disturbance; avoid feeding wildlife and stick to guide instructions to protect fragile habitats.
The eastern Dominican lowlands were historically shaped by Taíno habitation and later agricultural expansion for sugarcane; smallholder farms still punctuate the landscape the ziplines cross.
Photographer's Notes
- • From the highest platform before the 700m run for panoramic countryside shots
- • Mid-course clearings where lines shoot over small valleys
- • Ground-level staging area for guide portraits and action prep photos
