Municipal authorities witnessed the restart of activities in this space of coexistence with nature.
Last weekend it reopened its doors under a new concept, the Xihutla Ecological Park, of the Playa Grande ejido, which offers direct contact with nature, among other tourist and gastronomic attractions for Vallartans and visitors.
This new opening was attended by the Deputy Director of the Environment, Helios Hernández Hurtado, who on behalf of the interim municipal president, Jorge Antonio Quintero Alvarado, wished the members of the Playa Grande ejido the best of success, as well as to those who are supporting this effort. The park closed last year due to the pandemic and today resumes its activities.
"This type of project, reopening, is good because (the pandemic) has treated the entire region quite harshly this year and we need it, especially in a project in which the environment is being taken care of. The ejido have always been concisely protecting all this part of what has become the banks of the Pitillal River, a river that is very important for the city and for us, that the people of Puerto Vallarta,"he said.
Also present the director of Municipal Tourism, Ramón González Lomelí, indicated that this project is an example of the reactivation that the destination is experiencing today. “Every time an activity like this is incorporated into Puerto Vallarta, of course it comes to enrich the tourist industry, so we are very pleased as an authority in this matter that this paradise here on the mountain reopens its doors; the truth is that I congratulate you.”
Together with the president of the Playa Grande ejido, José Luis Flores; the president of the Xihutla Ecological Development, Elpidio Ramos; Adrián Providenza and Martín Baravalle, administrators of this project, municipal officials cut the bar to re-launch this new natural concept, which consists of a restaurant by the river, including expeditions and zip lines among other activities to enjoy the nature of this area.
