Canyoneering at Badian

If you are like me, a person who likes to try different adventures but is also afraid of heights then I can say, canyoneering is a very fulfilling, satisfying adventure for you!

There are many adventures that Cebu can offer to tourists and even to the locals, recently, we just tried the popular Canyoneering at Badian. Actually, the adventure starts at Alegria and ends at Kawasan, Badian. There are two types of canyoneering, the upstream and the downstream. For beginners, downstream is recommended. The adventure takes about 3 - 4 hours.

We met our tour guide at Matutinao church or the entrance of Kawasan falls. After, we prepared our things and ourselves, we are now ready for action.

Off to Kuya Albert's House
