This is a multi-activity day with quick moves between sites—pack a small daypack and keep important items accessible.
Footwear for ATV and walking
Closed-toe, sturdy shoes are required for the ATV section and helpful on uneven viewing terraces.
Sun and hydration
Open ziplines and exposed viewpoints mean sun exposure—carry water and high-SPF sunscreen.

Conservation Note
Avoid feeding animals at exhibits and follow guide directions—off-road ATV use can accelerate erosion, so operators limit routes to managed trails.
