Hiking to Unique Waterfalls from Puerto Vallarta

This is a guided jungle hike from Puerto Vallarta to a set of waterfalls. The operator describes it as a 100% sustainable, environmentally friendly activity, run with the collaboration of the local community, which uses it to manage its resources and keep the place in good condition for future visitors.

The listed duration is 480 minutes, so plan on a full day. A certified guide meets you at the meeting point and, on the way to the starting point of the hike, explains the route and the attractions you will pass. Along the trail the guide also points out places of interest and explains the flora and fauna of the area, including species endemic to the region that you may see during the walk. If you want to know about the difficulties of the path, the guide will explain those as well when asked.

The listing gives few details about the day beyond this: it does not list the individual waterfalls, the distance walked or the return arrangements, so ask the operator if any of that matters for your plans. What it does make clear is that the focus is on nature and on doing the visit in a way that benefits the community.

This is a physical activity. It is not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries, pregnant travelers or people with poor cardiovascular health, and travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness. If you are unsure whether it suits you, check before booking.

Breakfast is included in the price. The meeting point is given as the tile park in the Romantic Zone or the Saturday market, so decide with the operator which one applies to your date.
