10 Outdoor Activities That Adventurous Couples Can Do This February

If you are planning how to celebrate Valentine’s Day, you would be surprised to know that it is no longer limited to candle-lit dinners and romantic dates.

If you and your special someone are the adventurous kinds, then this post is for you! Here are ten outdoor activities that you can do this February:

Wall Climbing, Rappelling, or Ziplining

If you and your partner are the kinds who would like the adrenaline pumping and challenge your limits, then you can give climbing, rappelling, or ziplining a try.

What makes these activities awesome for the adventurous couples is that the combination of speed and height will make you squeal with delight. Luckily, there are rock climbing gyms within Metro Manila; and you can enjoy climbing and rappel up north in La Union and Bulacan.

Skydiving

Skydiving is one of those conquer-your-fear challenges, no wonder some would wish to do that before they kick the bucket.

Luckily, there is a beach in Iba, Zambales that lets you do skydiving whether you want to do it solo or with a tandem.

The former entails you to jump out of a small plane about 3,500 to 4,000 feet high, while your instructor oversees you through a radio. On the other hand, a tandem skydiving means you will jump off from an altitude of 10,000 feet.

The skydiving costs PHP 12,500 to PHP 17,000, inclusive of orientation, practice, and safety procedures.

Glamping

Meanwhile, if you and your special someone are the kind who like to commune with nature, then glamping might be for you.

The best thing about glamorous camping is that you can experience outdoor camping with the convenience of sleeping in a comfortable bed, with a fan, and a night lamp.

At Quest Adventure Camp, we offer glamping accommodations for any events. Thus, letting you and your partner feel and enjoy the cool mountain breeze while dozing off in your glamping tents.

4 x 4 Off-roading

If you plan to spend the Heart’s Day far outside of Manila, then consider having a romantic getaway to the farthest tip of Luzon ‒ Ilocos Norte!

Add a thrill to your romantic getaway by hopping into a 4 x 4 off-road truck and go around the sand dunes of Laoag on a rugged and wild ride.

Mind you, not everything in Laoag is sand dunes. You would be surprised to see that atop a sandy hill are healthy shrubs and trees. And this hilltop can give you a 180-degree view of the entire city.

Guided ATV Tour

The province of Rizal, which is just an hour or two away from Manila, is another nearby sweet escapade for the adventurous couples. That’s because it features an All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) tour.

The tour will take you and partner through mountains and muddy jungles of the Sierra Madre mountain range, to the heart of the jumble, rivers, waterfalls, and hiking trails of the province.

Trekking and Camping

To the south of Manila, in Los Baños, is another place you and your significant other can commune with nature.

Explore the woodlands and discover new paths as you climb up Mt. Makiling. Just make sure that you have your camping and trekking gears with you, as well as properly register with the Makiling Center for Mountain Ecosystems before taking the trail.

It is also important to note that you will need a vehicle, as it takes some driving distance between the camping area and the trail.

Spelunking

If you and your partner would want to explore Palawan other than the usual island hopping, you might want to consider spelunking.

The Hundred Cave, a village-run caving system in Puerto Princes, boasts epic limestone sceneries. But the best thing about this place is that it is nearly tourist-free, as it is yet to be noticed by the tourism industry. After all, you might need to ask around in order to find this cave system.

Ultralight Flying

Want to conquer your fear of heights with your loved one? Why not try ultralight flying in Angeles City, Pampanga?

This activity allows you to fulfill your dreams of being a pilot for a day as they let you ride an ultralight aircraft.

To add to the experience, your pilot guide will hand you an earphone and teach you how it works before flying up at 1,200 feet.

Sandboarding

If 4 x 4 off-roading is not your thing, perhaps sandboarding will entice you and your partner while in Ilocos Norte.

Just like surfing, sandboarding allows you to get creative with how you will ride the board. There is the sled style, which is the basic form. You can also ride the board belly down a.k.a. Superman-style. And, of course, there is the surfing style.

Otherwise, you can roll on the sand if you feel like it.

Pump Track Biking

Pump track biking may not exactly be outdoors, but it is still an adventurous activity. The good news? There are pump bike circuits that you can find within Metro Manila!

You do not even have to be a professional biker. This place is also popular for those who want to learn how to bike. This can also be a fun activity if you have kids, and you want to introduce them to cycling and other outdoor activities.
