Conquering Northern Mindanao: How To Go To Bukidnon

This is the tenth part of our 4-days-3-nights Conquering Northern Mindanao trip.

For our 4th day in CDO, we decided to do a little side trip going to Bukidnon to experience the Dahilayan Adventure Park. Going to Bukidnon is easy, but going to Dahilayan Adventure Park is a bit of a challenge.

Bukidnon is a landlocked province located in the Northern Mindanao Region. The name “Bukidnon” means highlander or mountain dweller. It is considered to be the food basket of Mindanao.

Here are two options on how to commute to Dahilayan Adventure Park in Bukidnon from CDO:
  1. Go to Agora Bus Terminal. From there take either a van or a jeepney going to Barangay Camp Philips, Manola, Fortich, Bukidnon. Once in Camp Philips, hire a habal-habal (motorcycle) going to Dahilayan Adventure Park. It is advisable to contact the habal-habal ahead of time to assure that you have a ride going there.
  2. Via the Zipzone Shuttle from CDO. This is available every Saturday from 8:00 am to 8:30 am which is found at Coffeeworks in Divisoria. Round trip fare is 350php/person. You can also ride it going back to CDO which leaves Dahilayan at 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm. For reservation, contact 09228801319.


Welcome to Bukidnon!

What we did was option 1, riding a jeepney to Bukidnon. Luckily, we were able to look up a habal-habal in the internet, Kuya Bibot. He gave us a price of 500php round trip. So when we arrived in Bukidnon, he was waiting for us immediately to take us to Dahilayan Adventure Park.
