DAVAO INVASION: CAMP SABROS

PLACE: Camp Sabros at Kapatagan, Digos, Davao del Sur

If you love adventure and not afraid of heights, for sure, you'll enjoy at Camp Sabros Adventure Park. If you think Zip line, Sky ride and Rappel is extreme, think again. It's something you need to try. The feeling of like flying in the sky and seeing the luscious trees below is something you shouldn't missed. They also offer cable line ride for those fainted heart or simply have a bonding moment with your family and loved ones at their picnic area. Camp Sabros also offer accommodations where your eyes will lust for it's wonderful and beautiful view. From 3,980 feet you have a chance to view the Mount Apo, Philippine's highest mountain. I highly recommend this place for those who wanted to explore the beauty of Davao.

HOW TO GET THERE: If you're from Digos City, take a tricycle ride going to terminal where the van is waiting going to Kapatagan. If you're from Davao City, you can take a van on SM Davao Terminal or bus on Ecoland Terminal going to Digos bus terminal. From Digos bus terminal take a tricycle ride and tell them to get you on terminal going to Kapatagan. Just tell the driver of the van about Camp Sabros and they will get you there. Upon going up to the camp, you'll either take it on foot or ride habal habal.

If you rent the whole van, it costs you P1,100.00 maximum of 14 persons

ADDITIONAL INFO / TIP: There's no entrance fee and corkage in Camp Sabros. My tip is if you want to go up in Camp Sabros by foot, it will only take you 10 to 15 minutes plus you could have a chance to have more time taking the picture of a great mountain view of Kapatagan. You need to bring jacket even if it's summer because the place is really cold, sneakers, shorts or any comfortable pants, belt or sling bag and most of all DIGITAL CAMERA to capture great moments... =)

ADVENTURE: Cableline Ride

> This is the cable line going to the main base after the sky ride and tree top rappel. From this main base, we're going to ride the 380m zipline, this will be the first zipline ride you'll take.

the luscious view of trees below the cable line ride

just having fun with the nice back drop

> This is the second cable line ride going to the other base where we will ride 4x4 that will take us to 400m zip line. I bet you, riding on 4x4 is just another kind of adventure because of the rough, dusty and cliff road.

preparing ourselves for another kind of adventure
