The first cable opens like a door to the forest—low to the ground, wind picking at leaves, the guide zipping ahead to show the line. Riders clip in, hear a brief safety talk, and push off: seven runs slice through secondary dry tropical forest, each landing on solid ground so even nervous first-timers can step back and breathe between lines.
