Davao hosts Asia's longest, highest and fastest zipline: the Xcelerator at Outland Adventure!


Is that a national park or a ride?

[wanderlust]

The Xcelerator is a ride. Outland Adventure is a ropes course facility. :)

Here are some sample pics from the Xcelerator:

Looks fun, up in the mountains. do you have to hike to get there?

[wanderlust]

Yes. The trek to the top might be about 15-20 mins. Might take you longer if you haven't had any physical activity for a long time. It's a steep trek but all worth it.:)

[Cess]

The Xcelerator looks really really fun. Gonna try it out someday :D

Where exactly in Davao is the Xcelerator? How long is it? How much would you spend for the ride?

I vowed to ride on it before the year ends. Must conquer fear of heights!!! hahaha

[SARAWI]

yep yep that's good.

[megan21]

How deep is the Excelerator from above?

I wonder if my brother and his family have tried this Xcelerator because they live in Davao. If I have the chance to visit his place one of these days, I will check this out but I won't try it. Seems scary to ride in it but I know that it's gonna be fun to a lot of youngand energetic people.

Hehehe... I am afraid of heights, but I think it is worth a try.:rolleyes:

[wanderlust]

It is!!! Just imagine how proud you would be of yourself if you've managed to ride on it. :)

[stella]

Where in Davao is it exactly? That'd be really nice to try. Especially in the arms of a beautiful man...hm. What about bungee jumping?

Davao is the biggest City in mindanao, its also famous for Durian! those who love it should go there to eat as much as they can, and it won't be as expensive as in other cities.

I have to be Honest, Durian isn't the friendliest looking fruit, and at first the smell completely disgusted me, until this girl convince me to eat it, she clipped my nose tight and made me taste it without smelling it, and as soon as i had it my mouth it wasn't so bad, but surprisingly enough, when she let go of my nose, the smell came back and it completely complemented the taste in my mouth. Now I love it! its one of those either u hate or love it fruits, but i think its amazing, definitely the most exotic fruit i've ever tasted.

Is it weird that I actually like the smell of durian? Haha! When I went to Brunei, the smell of durian would flourish in the grocery. Maybe that's why I'm quite accustomed to the scent already.

Hey, any affordable accomodations you can recommend in Davao? The Zipline looks like fun!

I love the durian candy but i never tried eating the durian fruit. I should probably try it the same way you did. I guess that'll be the only way I can taste this exotic fruit. I also don't like the smell that's why I never did try.

this is exciting! i wanna experience this. there's a similar type of adventure in danao, bohol. the only difference is you're hanged parallel to the rope and not vertically. they call it the suiclide.
