This is the last part of my Danasan Eco Adventure Park series. It was a good experience reminiscing the fun parts of this trip. I wish your Hive wallet grows so that you can allocate a portion of your monies to go to this place. It is such a refreshing park to get lost in. However, if you still want to maintain your communication lines to the city, make sure to load your Smart and Sun sims. Globe sims don't get coverage there.
Skydrop

This has got to be Danasan's most thrilling ride ever. I totally regretted not having to try this out! Our family friend and my brother's girlfriend were the brave ones who went ahead and tried it. They were suspended 120 ft. above the ground! That's the height of 20 Filipinos stacked on top of each other!
On their ascent, there was only one thought in my head - "How would I explain to her mom, in case something happened to her?" I was worried that my brother's girlfriend would be harmed because I took the responsibility of taking her with us.
The ride was like a giant swing. You will be up there with a partner so it's best to have someone who isn't afraid of heights around. The ascent took longer than the the drop and the swing altogether - a surefire way to make your adrenaline go wild before the climax. Up there, you will be asked to pull a cord. After pulling, you'll go swinging right away.
Everyone was so scared for them - most especially me! We froze to our seats, we were sweating cold for them. Thankfully, both were such good sports and didn't back out the last minute. When they went down, they told us the swing was the fun part. A few minutes after the ride though, they felt stomache pain. It must have been due to the quick swinging motion.
Zipline & Horseback
It was our last day and everyone wanted to try out all of the rides as a last hurrah! The weather was good and everyone's energy was on full-tank!

We got the package rides of zipline plus horseback rising since the guides told us that we would have to walk on foot once we reach the end of the line. The zipline was only one way, and taking into account my mom who could not endure long walks anymore (I know she looks relatively young, but she has serious body pains already) horseback riding was the way to go.
I had mixed feelings when I rode the horse. Part of me was excited that I get to replace my childhood memory of the most uncomfortable horse ride I had in Baguio city due to a fashion miscalculation and another part felt sorry for the poor creature. I went ahead and rode him anyway (I'm sorry ðŸ˜). I engaged in a bit of a chat with the guides and they told me how these horses were with them since they were just little ponies. They essentially trained them to become who they are now. It gave me the sense that they were taken cared of.
It was a chill ride, not as adrenaline-inducing as the skydrop and it was kinda bitin (came up short)! I wasn't expecting ziplines to be that chill. I really thought it was exciting, but it was relaxed. No complaints though! It was still better than moping around at home. My mom had fun and that was the most important thing.
Skybike

I have to correct myself, I had two regrets at Danasan Eco Park. The first one was the sky drop and the second one was this! I don't know why I didn't try this ride out. Maybe it was plain old overthinking on my end. Ate J, on the other hand, didn't let overthinking and her weight stop her. She was overweight, but that wasn't an issue for her - she went full speed ahead.
I wasn't alone in my plight, though. Ate S here started off wanting to try the skybike for herself. But after getting a feel of the height and the balance that she had to pull off, she backed out, right after she posed for the camera of course! They said that the trick to this ride was to keep going. Just pedal until it was time to stop. Remember Ate J? She almost toppled over near the end because she stopped pedaling! Thankfully, she was able to regain her movement and continued on.
Thank you for reading all the way through! If you've stayed read all of the parts of our Danasan Eco Park Adventure, I have a little surprise for you. I'm feeling generous 😄. I'm giving away 10 HBD to the one who can answer this question first -
"What room did we book in?"
