Experience Worth Treasuring: Camp Sabros: Zipline

Rika, Me and Bong

Camp Sabros is one of the well known outdoor establishment here in Mindanao. It is located of Barangay Kapatagan at Digos City.

How to get to Camp Sabros? From Davao City to Digos City travel time is 30mins to 1hr via van or bus from Ecoland terminal, depending on the traffic. In our case, instead of riding a bus, we choose the Kidapawan route to Digos City, and told the conductor to drop us at Camp Sabros, Kapatagan Road. The fare was 170/each as of 2013.

The van left at 9AM at SM City Ecoland Van Terminal and we arrived at Kapatagan, Digos City at 9.45 AM.

You will know if you are in the right track if you saw the Mt. Apo Signage.

From the road you will see the "habal-habal" station. "Habal-habal" is the only mode of transportation at Brgy. Kapatagan.

Some roads are being constructed when going up to Camp Sabros.

From the main road the travel time is 1hr. Fare: 200/way.

Camp Sabros is definitely breath-taking. And because we were there during rainy season, Mr. Mt. Apo was covered by fog/clouds. :(

The cable lift

The camp have a lot of guard dogs, you better watch your food, or he will get it and eat it without you looking.

Me, preparing our lunch

We bought our food at TAPS: lechon kawali, egg, and garlic rice. We did some grocery the day before we departed. A ready to eat pack: ulalam and some cup noodles. We just bought a hot water and softdrinks at the camp.

The camp has their very own restuarant.
