Try their 340-meter zip line or the sky bicycle—a unique experience where you ride a bicycle while suspended in the air!

For those who like to go back to childhood or just feel that childlike fun vibe, you will be delighted to see the animatronic dinosaur park and life-size statues of animals. The statues are also so beautiful that they look like they were designed for Instagram—definitely worth every photo! One of the iconic landmarks here is the “Manok ni Cano Gwapo,” the Guinness World Record Holder as the largest chicken structure in the world. This statue is not just a consolation; it is also a tribute to the cock breeders of Negros Occidental who helped the province's economy when the sugar industry collapsed in the 1980s.

Our Experience
When I first visited Campuestohan, one of the things I immediately noticed was the friendliness of the place for all ages. Whether you are young or old, there is fun in store for you. Rides like the Viking ride not only get the heart racing but also provide an awe-inspiring view while you are in the air. For me, it's like going back to childhood. A simple joy that seemed to pull back carefree times. But not all aspects are perfect. For seniors and PWDs, walking up and down the resort can be a challenge. Rooms are also limited for those who want to stay overnight, so early reservations are essential. There is also only one main restaurant, so it is quite challenging if the cottage you choose is far from here. However, there are enough food kiosks to fill your hunger if you don't want to walk far.

Area Highlights
One of the highlights of the resort is the walking characters who are ready to take photo ops with the guests. Simple things like their trash cans with open-mouthed animal designs add a unique charm to the place. It's also fun to see people seem to forget the stress of life while enjoying their families and friends. As an introvert, I didn't expect to like the crowd here. But, instead of being irritated, I saw joy on their faces. It's as if they have momentarily forgotten the pressure-filled modern life. The laughter and bonding moments of each family gave me pleasure despite the crowd.
