How it works
The hike begins at a starting point about 20 minutes from Sayulita. You can make your own way there, or ask our concierge staff to arrange transportation. You'll receive instructions on where and when to meet your tour guide well in advance.
Your Nayarit Coast hiking experience exits from either Higuera Blanca or the Sayulita side of the trail network. If you'd like return transportation back to Sayulita or the hotel, we can also set that up for you.

- Closed hiking, running, or tennis shoes
- Plenty of drinking water
- Mosquito repellent (organic if possible)
- Sunblock or sunscreen
- Waterproof protectors for your electronic devices
If you want to offer your tour guide a tip, you can also bring some cash.
Have breakfast or lunch at least one hour before your hike's scheduled start time. Visit Avela's on-site restaurant, or check out your Sayulita dining options.
