Soar above the Oriental Mountain Range on a four-hour zipline circuit of 15 platforms and eight cables, including a 2,500-foot run. This Punta Cana canopy tour pairs high-speed thrills with mountain and coastal views, local fruit, and round-trip transport from most resorts.
The Experience
Before You Go
Secure loose items
Phones and sunglasses can be lost on long runs — use a wrist strap, chest mount, or leave valuables at the base.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sneakers with a firm sole provide traction on platforms and during short hikes between stations.
Hydrate before you go
Bring a reusable water bottle; light snacks and soft drinks are provided but you’ll want water for the heat.
Time your visit
Morning departures are cooler and usually less windy, making the longest cable more comfortable and stable.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Short on-route stops for fresh tropical fruit and local coffee offered by small roadside stands
- •Nearby cacao or coffee farm visits if you extend your day into a cultural half-day trip
Wildlife
- •Tropical birds such as Hispaniolan woodpeckers and parrots
- •Occasional agoutis and native lizards in the understory
Conservation Note
Operators emphasize minimal-impact infrastructure and restricted trail work; visitors are asked to avoid littering and to follow guide directions to protect fragile understorey habitats.
The Eastern Range region has long been agricultural land; canopy tours are a relatively recent addition aimed at diversifying incomes while offering conservation-minded visitors a different way to read the landscape.
Photographer's Notes
- • Top platform for sweeping valley and coastal line views
