Selvatica ATV, Ziplines & Cenote Swim Near Cancun
A half-day of high-speed ziplines, a unique zip-coaster, a mud-splattered ATV circuit and a refreshing swim in a private cenote — Selvatica mixes adrenaline with the quiet power of Yucatán limestone. Read on for what to expect and how to prepare.
The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate before you go
Bring a reusable water bottle and drink plenty of water before and after high-adrenaline activities; the park provides water but you’ll appreciate having it on hand.
Shoes for the track
Closed-toe, grippy shoes are required for ATVs and helpful for the rope course; sandals are fine only for the cenote swim portion.
Protect the cenote
Use biodegradable sunscreen and avoid lotions before swimming to keep the cenote clear; lockers or dry bags are recommended for electronics.
Bring a change of clothes
Expect mud and spray on the off-road circuit—pack a towel and dry clothes for the ride home.
