BAGUIO CITY—The Baguio Treetop Adventure zipline at the Camp John Hay allows visitors to literally fly above and enjoy a unique view of Baguio City.
The Baguio Treetop Adventure is one of the newest attractions that that one can find when visiting Baguio. It was opened in November 2010 and is operated by the same group behind the Subic Treetop Adventures and Zoom in Circulo Verde in Quezon City.
Just like the zipline in Subic, the Baguio Treetop Adventure zipline area is surrounded by natural forest. The zipline allows adrenaline junkies to fly above at a height of 50 feet or higher.
Baguio Treetop Adventure features five “adventure packages” which include the Superman Ride, Silver Surfer, canopy ride, tree drop, and trekking adventure. Visitors can choose which ones they can try or they can simply avail of the whole package.
The Superman Ride literally lets you soar horizontally on two safety bars (for your feet and arms) and a secured double harness.
For those who wish to ride with partners, the Silver Surfer or the Funicular Ride is best for you. In the Silver Surfer ride, you’ll be standing up on a pole, your hands on a bar as you ride face to face with a partner.
The canopy ride is much more relaxing because one can just sit down on a small platform and ride through a suspension bridges with motorized cables with a nice view of the forest below.
But if you’re really looking for that adrenaline rush, the tree drop is the ride for you. The ride is basically a free fall from a skywalk simulating a freefall from a cliff.
On your next trip to Baguio City, be sure to check out Baguio Treetop Adventure.

Hi,
In my last winter vacations we have tried zipline tours in India. Our experience is very amazing.
