With its hugely varied topography, Mexico is endowed with al kinds of ecosystems, climates and mountain ranges that in turn put within reach a wide range of extreme eco-tourism activities.

Whether in the depths of the jungle, along the length of the beach, or on the edge of canyons and ravines in the middle of the desert, you can enjoy some or all of the extreme sports on offer in Mexico.

After you’ve tried one, you’ll want to have a go at another: flying on a zip-line or leaping on a bungee rope, jumping into the void with a parachute, flying in a hot-air balloon, racing along trails on a 4x4, descending into caves guided by experts, horse riding, swimming in underground rivers or in mangrove swamps or flying a parapent – these are just some of the options you can go for with the help of the specialist operators located in every town and port.

Feeling the excitement of your stomach contracting and overcoming your fear are unique experiences you will keep with you forever: you can hear your own heart beating as you prepare for a great leap, a high jump or the rapid ups and downs as you control a motorbike.

This is also a way of getting to know one of the most majestic animals on earth – the horse. Noble and strong, they offer a peaceful ride along the beach as you enjoy the sunlight on your body, and the blue line of the horizon perceived on your traverse between the seagulls and the coastal vegetation.

Or, you can take advantage of the power of these animals to climb mountains and reach the highest point above canyons that will leave you breathless with their spectacular natural surroundings, like nothing you have seen before.
