Zipline, Buggies, and Chairlift Thrills at La Hacienda Park in Punta Cana

Morning sun shakes the mist from the Anamuya hills as the chairlift hums to life, gliding you above a quilt of palms and cacao groves. The forest below stirs—breezes tug at fronds, a river flashes between stones—and the Dominican countryside invites you to play. At La Hacienda Park, the day moves like a pulse: float, fly, drive, and cool off, then do it again.

Adventure Tips

Beat the heat

Start hydrated and keep sipping throughout the day—humid, tropical conditions make electrolytes and water essential.

Footwear that flexes

Closed-toe shoes or grippy water shoes handle zipline stairs, buggy pedals, and slippery river stones far better than sandals.

Secure the small stuff

Use a strap for sunglasses and action cams; zip pockets for phones. Gravity and wind are not negotiable on the ziplines.

Dress for the splash

Wear a quick-dry outfit over your swimsuit so you can move easily between rides and the river without changing clothes.

History

The Anamuya foothills have long supported coffee and cacao farms; today, community-guided adventure tourism offers a sustainable alternative to large-scale cane agriculture.

Conservation

Stay on marked paths, avoid single-use plastics, and use reef-safe sunscreen to reduce runoff into the river system and downstream coastal waters.
