    What To Expect

    Welcome to our adventure to the Waterfalls, Jungle, and Mountain.

    We will meet in the old center of Puerto Vallarta and take the urban transport direction south of the city, just as the locals do!

    After a 15 min drive, we will get off the bus and start walking in the tropical forest. You will get to know lots of different plants, animals and learn about the river.

    We will follow a rough path that changes depending on the amount of rain that has fallen and that crosses the river multiple times.

    After one hour of hiking and some impressive views up in the mountains, we reach the first waterfall.
    Here we can take pictures, rest a bit and have water and fruit.
    Between the rocks, we have a refreshing swim with the fish in the small lake.

    For the ones that are still not satisfied, we take another path up until the next set of waterfalls.

    We end at a lookout high above the jungle with a spectacular view over the bay!

    *April - june: due to dry season we visit the Quimixto waterfall as an alternative. This includes boat transport paid by us
