Biologist led Jungle Hike in Sayulita: Explore Natikari Reserve

Join your expert guide on a challenging and immersive hike through the lush, vibrant Sayulita jungle. Designed for those who want a focused, no-frills adventure, this tour takes you deep into the heart of the Sierra de Vallejo. You'll traverse diverse terrain, navigate riverbeds, and explore the unique ecosystem of our private nature reserve. This is more than a walk—it's a hands-on exploration where you'll learn about the local flora and fauna from a passionate biologist. What to Expect: A fun and educational hike Difficulty: Intermediate. The 7 km trail with a 160-meter elevation gain includes narrow, steep sections, so a reasonable level of fitness is required. What to Wear: I recommend closed hiking shoes with non-slip soles and long trousers for protection. What to Bring: Please bring your own water and snacks. Not Suitable For: Small children (under 7 years). Contact me for alternative dates or private groups.
