You step off the minivan and the rainforest fills the air—humid, green, and alert. Platforms perch in the crowns of tall trees and a network of cables threads the canopy; the forest seems to lean in, daring you to move faster. Starting at the first platform, you clip into the harness, feel the wind take you, and ride a sequence of 11 zip lines that arc over streams, vine tangles, and epiphyte-laden branches.
