TOP 3 MOST VISITED PLACES IN DIGOS CITY

Over view of Mt. Apo

1.The highland valley of Kapatagan in Davao del Sur

The highland valley of Kapatagan in Davao del Sur has recently become one of the most popular outdoor adventure destinations because of the many unique wonders and delightful sights to see and experience - a truly different kind of adventure anyone can enjoy; a perfect quiet respite from the noise of city life. Blessed with  lush greenery, the entire valley is rich with a variety of flora and fauna, towering forest trees and stately pine trees set in a landscape of wild grass and vegetation. Occasionally, Kapatagan is fully covered with a pleasant mixture of cool mountain mist and hoovering thick fog particularly in the early morning of the day and in the evening.

Kapatagan is just one of the barangays of Digos City, with an estimated population of at least 8,000 inhabitants whose primary livelihood is vegetable cultivation, Tilapia breeding, coffee farming and recently, tourism. It is home to a number of flora and fauna species endemic to Mindanao and also to the King of the Philippine Skies, the great Philippine Eagle. Its close proximity to Mount Apo, the Philippines' highest mountain peak, makes it one of the major jump of points for mountain climbers preparing to scale the dormant volcano.

Camp Sabros

2.Camp Sabros 

Camp Sabros is an outdoor adventure camp situated 3,980 feet above sea level on the cool highlands of Sitio Barras in Kapatagan. Opened to the public in December 25, 2007, it boasts of two long 380 and 400 meters zip lines called "Slide for Life" at 180 feet above the ground, roughly the height of a five-story building. The camp is surrounded by lush greenery of tall pine trees all across its landscape, and offers a relaxing view of Mount Apo and the surrounding mountain ranges. Its high elevation makes the weather in Camp Sabros cool all year round.

 

3. Passig islet

The resort is not that huge but it is beautiful. However, do not expect fine powdery sand on the beach like that of Panglao in Bohol or Boracay because it is just a man-made islet.

I think, there are still a lot to be improved in Passig Islet.  It would be cool if they have a restaurant at the place and they have electricity.  I think they also need to add the number of their restrooms which currently they only have 1 for male and 1 for female.  Sometimes people have to queue just to go to the restroom especially when 5pm is approaching when most people are preparing to leave at the islet.

Other than those concerns, Passig islet is a lovely place to relax and unwind.  You can feel the cold breeze against your skin and the sight of school of fishes jumping and parading when seawater gradually recedes due to low tide is a sight to behold.  The lovely mountains of Davao del Sur forming at the backdrop are just perfect.
