Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE ROUTE

Twelve zip lines across a tropical mountain range

The excursion features 12 cables that run across a lush tropical mountain range, including some of the longest zip lines in the Dominican Republic and the Caribbean—riders can be suspended up to 800 meters as they glide over jungle canopy.

THE WILDLIFE

Close encounters at Monkeyland

A dedicated visit to Monkeyland gives participants a 45‑minute interaction window to watch and feed squirrel monkeys in a naturalized setting with sweeping mountain views.

THE SENSE OF PLACE

Anamuya Mountain landscapes and a countryside finish

Beyond the zip lines and monkeys, the route unfolds across the Anamuya ridges—landscapes that reveal hidden valleys and finish with a traditional Dominican lunch in the countryside.

What the day feels like

What the Day Feels Like

It’s a deliberately paced full‑day: hotel pickup delivers you to the mountain compound for training and gearing up, then you move through a sequence of zip lines that alternates long, high runs with short treetop connectors; after the aerial leg the group visits the Coconut House and spends a focused 45 minutes interacting with squirrel monkeys before sitting down to a Dominican lunch and return transfers.
