Planning out this CDO-Bukidnon Weekend :)

I have been meaning to post my UnliFlight trips for a month now, but because am finishing my gazillion work loads on weekdays (so I can go with my weekend travel plans) getting more involved in family affairs and found a new love in itinerary making - i haven't post any of my most recent travels. 

Yes, you read it right.. In as much as I love traveling and while I am still an adventurous one with the high probability rate of crossing out planned things and replacing it with a few local suggestions - yes, I am having a blast planning trips. 

Planning your travel is like doing a a pre-trip though someones Else's travel blogs and experiences + some important info's from local government sites and weather forecasts too. Planning gets you excited, makes you look forward to the trip itself, makes you want to challenge and confirm what you have read about -- makes you want to leave now, travel and blog about it too. 

So here is my third planned itinerary, the first am going publish. Thanks to the other blogs I have been following and the local sites for CDO-Bukidnon, here goes my next weekend's plan: Excited to conquer the white waters and zoom in Asia's longest 840M zipline, bucket list check! :)

840M ASIA’S LONGEST ZIPLINE – P500

Camp Phillips is a community situated in Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon. It is also where the Del Monte Pineapple Plantation is located. It has a vast field of pineapples covering around 9000 hectares of land. A wide area of the place is planted with pineapples that stretch from horizon to horizon.

LAKE APO (Optional depends on time and travel distance) Lake Apo is formed due to the movement of the Earth’s crust, creating a circular-shaped lake atop the mountain floor.  It has an estimated area of 24 hectares and reaching to a depth of 26 meters.  It is found in Barangay Guinoyouran, some 11 kilometers from Valencia City in the province of Bukidnon.  It can be accessed by a motorcycle-for-hire, public utility vehicle (PUV), or you can ask a friend to drive you there.  When you get to the place, you pay a parking fee of P5 for a motorcycle and P10 for a car. Raft cottages are available for rent for P200 per use.  That is, if you are going to the middle of the lake. But if you’re going to stay in the shore, you don’t have to pay anything.

From Camp Phillips to Cagayan de Oro City
There are vans in Camp Phillips that will take you to Cagayan de Oro. Look for it at the transport terminal where you hired a habal-habal. Fare is 60 pesos and travel time is about an hour.
