Set in an ecological sanctuary outside San José del Cabo, the Shared Zip‑Lines and Rappelling experience threads seven ziplines and a suspension bridge across the Costa Azul Canyon before finishing on a natural 180‑ft rappel wall—an adrenaline circuit framed by unchanged rock formations and guided by a team with years of local experience.

THE LANDSCAPE

Costa Azul Canyon’s raw terrain

The course runs through an ecological sanctuary where natural rock formations line the approach; the canyon setting is as much the show as the lines themselves.

THE ROUTE

Seven zips, a suspension bridge and a 180‑ft rappel

The circuit includes seven zip lines, a suspension bridge and a dramatic 180‑ft natural rappel wall, plus racing cables for side‑by‑side runs—built for speed and variety over the canyon.

THE FINISH

Snack bar, margaritas and tequila tastings

When the ropes come down the operation shifts to basecamp mode: complimentary lockers, a snack bar and guided tequila and tequila‑liquor tastings to unwind after the circuit.

What the day feels like

A driver collects guests from the hotel corridor and delivers them through Costa Azul Canyon to the operator’s facilities; after a gear fitting and safety briefing you move through a 2‑plus hour zipline circuit—flying from ridge to ridge, crossing a suspension bridge and finishing with a rappel down a 180‑ft natural wall—then relax at basecamp with water, lockers and a tequila tasting.
