About

Pro Tips
- 1.Arrive right when doors open on weekends (2:30 PM) to avoid crowds and have shorter wait times for popular zipline courses.
- 2.Wear closed-toe athletic shoes (required) and comfortable clothing that allows movement. Long hair should be tied back securely.
- 3.Book activities in advance online if possible, as English-speaking staff may be limited. Having your booking confirmation ready helps smooth check-in.
- 4.Bring small bills in Peruvian soles for lockers and snacks, as card machines may not always work and USD exchange rates at the park are poor.
- 5.The park can get cool in the evening due to Lima's coastal climate, so bring light jackets even during summer months (December to March).
Best Time to Visit
Visit on weekday afternoons (Monday, Wednesday, or Thursday after 4 PM) when local school groups have left and crowds are thinner. Avoid Saturday afternoons when birthday parties peak. Lima's dry season (May to October) offers the most comfortable weather, though the park operates year-round.
What to Know
Entry and activity packages are moderately priced ($$) with different tiers based on number of activities. The park is located along busy Avenida Alfredo Mendiola, so taking a rideshare or taxi is recommended. Limited food options are available on-site, mostly snacks and beverages.
Seasonal Notes
Open year-round with consistent hours. Lima's weather is mild throughout the year, though the garua (coastal mist) from June to September can make surfaces slightly damp in mornings. The park is particularly popular during Peruvian school holidays in January, July, and December.
