List Of Activities To Try In Dahilayan Adventure Park

Guests can bring out their inner courage by taking the many Dahilayan Adventure Park rides. The park is one of the many ideal vacation spots for the family to enjoy. The park is home to a wide array of rides and attractions guests can take a figurative and literal dive into. Since there are no age limits, nearly everyone can freely take the rides. Guests can also find fun ways to conquer their fears and enjoy a boost of adrenaline. Here are the choices of activities guests can try out on their visits:

Zipline


Dahilayan Adventure Park is said to house the longest dual zipline in Asia. As the name implies, this zipline ride measures up to 840 meters in length and has a 100-meter drop. This zipline has dual cables for carrying two riders at the same time. Expect speeds ranging from 60 to 80 kilometers per hour throughout the journey.

Zip riders will begin their adventure from the 4500′ ASL launch tower, gliding above a canopy of lush pine trees as if they are flying. The 840m Zipline is not the only option guests can settle with. The 320m+150m Zipline is a more tame option for the whole family. This zipline ride suits the less daring or perfect practice before the big one. 

Dropzone


The Dropzone is another of the many heart-pumping Dahilayan adventure park activities guests can check out in their attempts to satisfy their hunger for thrills. This ride features a 36.7 m (120 ft.) Freefall into a manmade lake. Guests can freely take this ride solo or with a partner in experiencing a long drop and will swing just within meters of the water’s surface.

This adrenaline-pumping ride is even more unique because it is the first extreme pendulum swing in the Philippines. This ride is also perfect for those who are looking for something to boost their timid, peaceful life. 

Sky Tower Base Jump

The Sky Tower is another choice guests can consider in checking a different kind of freefall. This ride boasts an 8-storey tall platform, the highest para-jump in the country to date. Here, riders will experience a split-second freefall, followed by a gradual descent before taking a soft landing. Compared to the rest of the ride, this all will take around less than 10 seconds. This jump is an ideal option to add to the list of thrilling activities in the Philippines.

Python Rollerzip

The Python Roller Zipride is another ride that is recognized as the first of its kind across Asia, in comparison to the other Dahilayan Adventure Park rides. The Python will take guests onto a thrill that will rattle, roll, drop, swing, and bounce over 500 meters above.  Furthermore, this ride is the latest addition to the park’s growing roster of rides.

Another ride of its kind in the Philippines. The Razorback is Dahilayan Adventure Park’s latest thrill ride. Based on Europe’s popular alpine coaster rides, the Razorback adopts a gravity-powered ride to take guests across the mountain through a 600-meter winding monorail. 

Flying Lizard Canopy Glider

The canopy glider offers a unique way for guests to have a sky-level journey by peddling through the lines and moving through the green forest. Zip between treed as you peddle away, putting more pace on your speed for even more heart-beating thrills.

Ropes Course
