Our Kawasan Canyoneering Adventure
Our adventure began with an early morning pickup from Moalboal by our trusted canyoneering operator. After gearing up with helmets and life jackets at the operator’s base, we opted for the zip-line to reach the canyon’s starting point – a choice that saved us a 30-minute walk and added an extra thrill to our day.
Over the next 3-4 hours, we navigated the canyon’s natural obstacles, including three exhilarating rock jumps, with the highest leap from a 10-metre cliff. The adventure concluded around 3pm, followed by a satisfying late lunch provided by our operator before we returned to our accommodation in Moalboal. This experience was incredibly fun and is a must-do for any adventure seeker visiting Cebu!
