The Canopy consists of crossing from one side to the other using horizontal cables, with complete safety equipment. In our canopy circuit, tourists can enjoy an unforgettable adventure crossing from one mountain to the other. We start at an altitude of 20 meters above the Pucayaco River and finish the course at an altitude of 160 meters above the Ulba River canyon. The entire route is secured by a stainless steel cable that runs 2000 meters from start to finish, however, the route is divided into several sections consisting of 6 stations, each with a different distance and height. Each trip allows you to see stunning landscapes and connect more with the flora and fauna around you. With a total of 6 lines, we can assure you that your adventure will be full of adrenaline and excitement that you will never forget.
