Canopy in Lunahuaná

📝 Route Description

If you are a lover of adventure sports, canopy in Lunahuaná is one of the many options you can find in this place, where with just a pulley and some cables placed from end to end between the hills and the great Cañete River, you descend at great speed experiencing the sensation of flying quickly and a huge rush of adrenaline. Additionally, Canopy in Lunahuaná is considered the longest in South America, its 2500 meters in length give it this recognition, already known by the locals and tourists who want to experience the adrenaline of flying over the Lunahuaná Valley.

Starting Point for Canopy in Lunahuaná

We are in Lunahuaná, where we will take a bus to the great Jeronimo Valley and then walk (about 15 minutes).

Our great adventure begins in the upper part of the town of San Jerónimo at the foot of the Cañete River and ends minutes later near a ropes course.

  • Distance

To do Canopy, there are two exciting routes:

The first route is divided into two sections:

- "El Cormorant" of 350 meters crossing the vast Cañete River
- "El Carpenter" of 400 meters that crosses the river again on the way back.

The second route, the longest and most exciting, is also divided into sections:

- "The Swift" of about 500 meters where you can reach a speed of 70 kilometers per hour.
- "The Owl", more cautious at 200 meters. We continue with the fastest, for those who love to feel the adrenaline rush at full speed, "The Hummingbird", 100 meters long.
The last section: "The Eagle", a 900-meter long line, also the longest in South America.

  • Difficulty Level: Low

  • Time (approx. for the circuit)

The total time for the entire circuit may vary, as we know this is a new sport but has already generated great expectations among our adventurers. You may take 3 to 4 hours depending on the number of people that day, otherwise it may take up to an hour.

 

What to Bring?

  • Wear: pants or shorts (cool clothing preferred)
  • Cap
  • Sunglasses
  • Sunscreen
  • Sneakers
  • Bottle with plenty of water

Otherwise, we just recommend you to be fully charged and don't forget to bring a camera and take lots of photos, and? We are ready for the adventure!
