★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 436 reviews · 7 hours (approx.)

Ride a single or double ATV through Canopy River Park and the Sierra Madre, swim at El Salto, zip over the river, then take a 15-minute mule ride to a tequila tasting. Guides handle the safety details, but you should expect dust, steep paths, hiking, and a full day of activity.

“The atvs were a blast going through the mountains. We were in a small group so we were able to go at a very fast speed. The zip lining was incredible with views of the river. The ziplining guides made the trip worth it alone. They were both fun and super informative and made us feel safe. The mule ride up the mountain is a wild experience but be careful as it is very steep. The nachos at the restaurant at the top were by far the best we’ve had. Overall the experience was well planned and very safe throughout.”
