Experience The Great Outdoors with Foressa Trails by AboitizLand

Nowadays, Filipinos are into hiking, camping, and biking as a way to detach themselves from the rigors of city life. For weekend warriors, they love to be in the great outdoors but most of the time, it's inconvenient because of the travel needed to get from one place to antoher. 

Foressa Trails by AboitizLand is a new mountain adventure park located in Cansomoroy, Balamban, Cebu. It's about a 90-minute drive from Cebu City. Foressa Mountain Town is 45 kilometers away from the city. The place is just 7 kilometers from Balamban proper. 

AboitizLand's new adventure park has opened to the public boasting of an organic terrain that contains over 800 species of trees and foliage. Hundreds of hectares has been allocated for hike and bike trails as well as a camp site and tent site. 

The natural landscape of the place provides a sanctuary for folks who loves communing with nature. It's attraction is something that cannot be compared to any man-made structures. 

I'm not the outdoorsy-type of person but being in Foressa last Sunday and just enjoying the view; I could imagine why people should consider spending time at this park. It's organized, you can spend hours just having fun at your own pace.
