Tree Top Adventure
The only motorized zip lines in the Philippines is here in Baguio or Subic Branch. Tree Top Adventure offers extreme activities overlooking a nice scenery with a good weather of course, nothing to beat that. You might want to try their Tree Drop, in which you’ll be suspended 60 feet above the ground, mission impossible style and falling as fast as 2 to 3 seconds. This is Tree Top’s most extreme activity and only costs Php150. This is one way to really quench your thirst for an adrenaline rush.
You might also want to try their rides done in pairs: the Superman Ride and the Silver Surfer. As the name implies, you’ll be zip lining Superman Style for 200 meters long 150 feet above the ground, but instead of just doing it forwards, you will also zipline backwards. The Silver Surfer, on the other hand, is a 60-degree diagonal motorised zipline, in which you’ll be standing on a specialized platform and gliding up and down for three cycles. Expect stops and swings with every cycle. For Php300 and Php200 respectively, you can experience what superheroes feel like as they fly and glide through the air.

For those who haven't been to Baguio. Oh! Inviting you all. According to the dictionary, Baguio, officially the City of Baguio and often referred to as Baguio City, is a highly urbanized city in northern Luzon in the Philippines. It is geographically within Benguet, serving as the provincial capital from 1901 to 1916, but has since been administered independently from the province following its conversion into a chartered city.
