Bohol Island: Danao Adventure Park

Danao Adventure PARK
we wanted and intense adventure experience and luckily we ought to do this!!

DANAO is another town of Bohol. It took us an hour bumpy ride to go up there but it is all worth it. 
Me and my friends took the Package inclusive of:
  • Park Entrance
  • Suislide
  • Caving
  • Skyride  
  • Guides
  • Access to Shower room
  • Meals ( 2 snacks and 1 lunch)
Suislide


 is basically a zip-line. The Suislide has two lines, going forth and back. Its starting point is parallel to the Sky Ride and Plunge’s height.
Suislide is the local version for zipline, a sky ride or a slide for life. Sui-slide is coined from the word, “Suis“ (the sound of the cable ride once you get to slide) and “slide”. It could also mean for some who is so much petrified with heights to be a suicidal slide. It traverses around half a kilometer from one mountain to another, taking you to less than a minute exhilarating ride…



The Sky Ride is more like a cable ride with a gorgeous view of the river and gorge. The small open air cabin is suspended 200 meters above the ground, a 15 minute ride back and forth.






















Caving


get ready to be wet & dirty coz you will swim, jump, climb, & crawl, into the dark caves. We hiked a few miles to the location and once we got to our destination..I tell you it is INTENSE!




this was not part of the package but I just decided to Jump and try this out!!!

Plunge


a canyon swing adventure attraction mounted over a 200 meter high and 300 meter wide gorge. A person would have to do a 45 meters free fall before being launched on a pendulum swing measuring to a hundred meter diameter. Cable has a maximum working load of 5 tons. Now longer (70 meters) more fear some.
“The Plunge” is the best “fear factor” experience among other adventure activities on offer. One has to literally plunge to an open air where about two seconds, the plunger will all be defenseless, feel nothing and left all alone.
This experience is one great way to de-stress and even make one appreciate life the more.
and I got my Certificate of Fear Management!!! Cool!! ehh?  o_o


DANAO Adventure Park is 5star FUN!!
and I will come back and do other activities they offer :)
