CONQUER YOUR FEAR - THE TREE TOP ADVENTURE, BAGUIO

I wasn't able to experience TREE TOP ADVENTURE during my visit on last year's Panagbenga Event. The place was crowded and a long queue stopped us from wanting to try it, but I promised myself to try it on my next visit and so I thought...



       The TREE TOP Adventure offers you exciting and thrilling activities. There's Superman, Canopy Ride, Rappelling, Tree Drop, Trekking and many more. Since we are carrying our child with us I just let my husband try it together with his friends. While Kenzie and I waited at the platform (deck) for them to come back before we headed to the forest and do trekking and sky walk. I cannot tell how exciting the rides were since I haven't experienced it myself though my husband told me that it wasn't scary, in fact the view was amazing and breathtaking from 100 feet above the grounds and it was all worth trying.


Before trying any activities from inside this park you needed to go through a certain procedures and briefing.
At the entrance you will be greeted by few friendly staff. You need to pay for the entrance of 100 pesos (if I remembered it right). Once your wrist have been stamped and the ride tickets were handed, you may now enter the park walking to this first long bridge (made of steel & iron) so it sturdy and safe. At the end of the bridge you will need to pass through the verifying table where tickets inspection is being done and from there you may choose what package you'd like to try.





 Step three, after choosing the package you've liked, go directly to the cashier booth and pay for necessary fees. My entrance has been converted for a free trekking and skywalk (yehey) Then time to wear the safety gears. 

You need to wear helmet and protected gears before you can start loading yourself at the rides, safety is their top priority at the park and they have trained men and women to assist you and brief you on what to expect during the rides. 


Husband and friends, choose to take a canopy ride and the funicular ride then together we do trekking and skywalk. After almost an hour of waiting for them to come back at the platform, finally it's our turn (me and Kenzie) to experience some adventure. I was so happy that my daughter didn't get bored the whole (waiting) time. Thanks to the great view and good choices of music being played at the deck, spot where my daughter suits herself dancing non stop. (lol) 




Walking is a good form of exercise and so we did trekking and yes that includes our daughter. She braved the narrow trails of the forest, go through, jumped and skipped at the uneven and rough pathways on her feet. Climbed up the thin and narrow ladder going to the sky walk and brave the height as we are more than a hundred feet from below the grounds. The sky walk platforms are made of perforated stainless steels so the thrilling part is what you will see from down below. It was tiring but also equally exciting and thrilling. We had so much fun at Tree Top Adventure park and hope to try the rest of the adventure on our next visit. (fingers cross) :)
