Puerto Vallarta Extreme Adventure: Zipline, UTV & Rappel Combo
A single day of high-velocity thrills: zip across Mexico’s longest Superman cable, rappel through the canopy, pilot your own Polaris UTV and finish with a jungle waterslide. Small groups and ACCT-standard safety make this a manageable, unforgettable rush near Puerto Vallarta.
The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive hydrated
Start well-hydrated and bring a reusable bottle—tropical heat plus adrenalin can be dehydrating even on a short tour.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy tennis shoes with good tread are required for zipline platforms, rappels and the UTV course.
Bring a change of clothes & towel
You’ll get dusty on the UTV and wet on the waterslide—pack dry clothes for the return ride.
Drivers bring ID and card
If you plan to drive a Polaris UTV you must be 18+, show a valid driver’s license and provide a credit card for the damage guarantee.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •El Salado Estuary birding route—quiet mangrove trails 20 minutes from the park
- •Marina Vallarta boardwalk at dawn for fisherfolk and local seafood stalls
Wildlife
- •Green parrot species (Mealy/parrot chatter)
- •Iguanas basking on sunlit rocks
Conservation Note
The park follows ACCT safety and environmental standards, limits group sizes to reduce trail erosion, and encourages guests to avoid single-use plastics and stay on designated routes.
Puerto Vallarta grew from a cluster of fishing villages into an international resort in the mid-20th century, and inland eco-parks developed to provide controlled adventure while protecting corridors of tropical dry and wet forest.
