The morning bus climbs out of Puerto Vallarta and the city noise peels away, replaced by the damp-green smell of the Sierra and the rattle of distant birds. At Nogalito EcoPark the jungle opens into clearings where eleven zip lines stitch across gullies and a river that dares you to jump in once you reach the river club.
