DAHILAYAN ADVENTURE PARK GET AWAY

The first time I visited this place, there wasn't much to do yet except to try out their famous ZIPLINES. So I was pleasantly surprised when I came back and found out that they added several facilities and attractions that are still family oriented despite their "thrill factor." 

Of course they still have the ziplines which we tried.......

And the ADDED ATTRACTIONS:

TREETOPS OBSTACLE COURSE - We thoroughly enjoyed this! This is supposed to be for children but the child in me can't help but try this out too. Adults are permitted to try the course as long as you do not exceed the maximum weight allowed.

So hard to do this using slippers.....Bring sneakers/rubber shoes!

fun fun fun

The first time she tried this, my youngest daughter's knees were shaking and it took forever for her to finish the course  even if I was directly behind her and continuously prodding and encouraging her. But after finishing the entire course, the second time around  was a breeze for her :D You can repeat the obstacle course at a discounted price. 

ROPES COURSE - Made famous by that KC and SAM Movie. It's similar to the Treetops Obstacle Course but much harder. This, I wasn't able to finish. I can conquer the fear of heights but those damn ropes were just too hard to conquer - didn't have enough upper body strength to carry my weight. Maybe next time....

This was really HARD!! I wasn't able to finish this course!.

The LOOK of CONCENTRATION

 ZORB IT....

Getting Ready for the ZORB

BUGGY RIDE  - This is a little bit pricey. Price was P800.00 per buggy. It's like driving a Go Kart. There's a trail/course you have to follow which you will finish in less than 10 minutes (I think) depending on how fast/slow you are driving. It gets a little scary when you realize you're driving just beside a cliff. ATVs are also available but we preferred this one. I'm guessing this is also safer for the kids riding with us.

It was getting dark and it was really foggy when we took this for a ride so we weren't able to enjoy the view while driving/riding. It was still fun though. 

KIDS' PLAYGROUND - Even little kids and toddlers can enjoy the Adventure Park. They have this really nice playground coupled with a really nice view.  

THE PINE GROVE LODGE - The Park's website says it is "a nine-room ski chalet inspired Manor which has a 180 degree view of the Mt. Kitanglad Range Natural Park at the restaurant floor, & a private garden patio for intimate barbecues & bonfires."

The Pine Grove Lodge

The rooms are spacious, have nice interiors, clean bathrooms and flat TVs. Our room also has its own balcony overlooking the mountain range.


My only complaint: limited selection of food in their menu (especially desserts!!)

DROP ZONE - I heard this is their newest attraction which features a 120ft free fall into a man-made lake ... :0 ... interesting...


A BEAUTIFUL GARDEN NEARBY....


Several meters from the Adventure Park is a pretty picturesque garden known as the DAHILAYAN GARDENS and RESORT.  The garden's really nice and they have this picturesque white gazebo which is perfect for outdoor weddings. There is also a man-made lagoon, a campsite. a big white tent where you can hold parties or other events and some cottages for overnighters.

SOOOOOO PRETTY......
