HEADFIRST and BACKWARDS Down a Waterfall!!! Kawasan Falls Canyoneering.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 июн 2023
- We had such a blast canyoneering down the Matutinao River to the famous Kawasan Falls! It really was so much fun...and beautiful! We loved it.
We woke up early (around 3:30) to drive near Moalboal where the Kawasan Falls is located. The drive was beautiful as we went up and over the mountains in the middle of Cebu and as we were near the coast. It was a rough and bumpy drive, which made Jake throw up. Thankfully he was just carsick.
When we finally arrived and got our gear on, we were off on motorcycles driving up the mountain. The lush mountains with the ocean in the distance were absolutely breathtaking. After our orientation, we hiked down the mountain to the Matutinao River Canyon. We were amazed at the color of the water. It was such a pretty aqua blue with a milky look to it. We started the fun on our adventures right away as we jumped off the cliff, slid down another, and even slid backward down a small waterfall. One of the highlights of this first part of the Canyoneering was jumping off a cliff that was seven meters high. We got to jump off a couple of times and even saw our guides do some cool flips as they jumped off. It was awesome and a perfect way to start our canyoneering adventures. Stay tuned for part two of our canyoneering in part 2!

yah Benny is the Man 👊
Wow another awesome adventure in Cebu. While most people know it as the perfect vacation spot - which it is - it’s so much more than that. Cebu offers a unique travel experience as it is a place where the bustling city and paradise meet.
Cebu is the place that many people consider to offer the perfect blend of city life and suburban life. There isn't a shortage of explorations to do in Cebu.
Cebu has a lot to offer. Beyond being a center for trade and commerce, Cebu has always been a gateway for tourism. It has also been recognized by UNESCO as a “Creative City,” making it more attractive to local and foreign visitors.
Cebu has everything you’re looking for - good food; world-class beaches; world-class hotels and resorts; world-class and one of kind tourist spots that can only be found in Cebu like the Magellan's Cross, Basilica Minore del Santo Niño Church, Temple of Leah, Taoist Temple, Sirao Gardens, Cebu Ocean Park, CCLEX, Simala Shrine, Kawasan Canyoneering, Alegria Canyoneering, Sardine Run, Swim with the Whale sharks, breathtaking turquoise blue waterfalls and rivers; Cebu Safari, Churches, and many more; diverse marine life, unique coral reefs, best diving spots, best island hopping, amazing nature and wildlife; beautiful mountains/Highlands within the city; world-class infrastructures; world-class Airport; huge and modern malls; a thriving entertainment scene; rich culture; rich history; Bustling city; and all the modern conveniences that you need to live a comfortable lifestyle.
You can enjoy all the perks of city living even when you’re residing in the Queen City, Cebu. 👑♥️
Smiling the whole time. The positivity and joy that radiate in your family is infectious ❤😊
The stamina of this family is remarkable. High energy...adrenaline rush! Wow..
Rash*
wow the water is so clear
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ for backman family we love you
Omg! This is by far the most funful and enjoyable Badian Cebu Canyoneering vlog I have ever watched. I was smiling the whole time. Thanks guys for sharing your amazing adventure. God bless. 🙏♥️🙏
it's like a theme park but all natural
nature slides are the best
If it's Cebu it must be awesome!
So nice to see all of you having fun in Kawasan. Benny's energy is unmatched.🥰
Did you know that there's also a Canyoneering in Alegria.
Back in the day, before the restrictions, the Cebu Canyoneering literally starts in Alegria and exits in Kawasan Falls in Badian.
Basically, the place offers two types of canyoneering, The upstream and the downstream canyoneering. Of course, upstream is more physically demanding and may be suitable only for those that are really physically fit. For the downstream canyoneering which is just fitted for beginners. The canyoneering will run from three to four hours, depending on your power and speed. Based on the local tourism rules, the earliest group can start the activity at 6 AM. The latest is at 3 PM.
Not to be confused with the canyoneering in Badian that leads to the famous Kawasan Falls, the canyoneering Cebu in Alegria is a different stretch of that same river, with its own beautiful sights, obstacles and challenges.
Alegria is on the west coast of South Cebu, about 40 minutes from Moalboal or 3 hours from Cebu City.
The canyoneering Cebu course in Alegria is further south from Badian and does eventually meet up with the Badian course, however you can’t just continue downriver all the way to Kawasan Falls. Back in the day you could simply start in Alegria and keep going until you reached Kawasan, but these days there are restrictions in place that make this impossible.
Actually, you can still do both courses in one day, but you’ll need to exit the river at the end of the Alegria course and hike up the canyon back to the starting point. That was honestly the most tiring part - it’s steep. From there you drive to the Badian briefing centre before going back down into the canyon with all new gear and guides. You’ll also need to book two separate tours with Alegria and Badian authorities. It’s a lot of hassle and we really wish they could find a way to make this easier for people like it used to be, as the swap takes up so much time.
oh really!?
supertyphoon odette must have changed the canyon landscape
i experienced the alegria one probably in 2015
the tallest jump was 3 storey building high (based on my guesstimation)
the scenery in the alegria route was ethereal (it's like you're transported to an unknown universe, much like the movie avatar)
we did so many slides & jumps that i lost track counting them, and eventually ended up in the kawasan falls (after more than 5 hours)
it's an extreme adventure & a great fun moment for us
but what enchanted me was the amazing beauty of nature in alegria that was truly "spellbinding"
The kids have so much fun .. love it
The Backman fambam is crazy contagious
Benny's Energy is out of this world he knows how to enjoy
This is an adventure your kids will never forget.

Waiting for this video... ahhhh..
I knew you ganna love this adventure that's why I suggested this the first time you travelled in the Philippines. Good that finally you did it. So much fun to watch you guys feeling the thrill of the canyoneering. Your Mom, Joe and Grace should have come with you and could have just went straight to Kawasan Falls for a swim while waiting for all of you there. Anyway, hope they had a nice time at the Ocean Park. There's another canyoneering adventure in Cebu, further south of the province,the Alegria Falls, it's been featured by some foreign vlogger on RUclips. You can check it out if you wish for another adrenalin rush adventure. Enjoy and take care.
Yay! so excited, wow!!

Wow amazing clean blue water
wow awesome enjoy Backman family
It's a good thing you guys got it just in time.
Because the Governor just closed down the entire operation for clearing of structures & renovations.
No not all, only the Canyoneering in Badian, but the Canyoneering in Alegria is open to all tourists. The Canyoneering in Alegria is the upstream part of the entire Cebu canyoneering which is more physically demanding and may be suitable only for those that are really physically fit.
Cebu Province Governor Gwendolyn Garcia, on Friday, June 2, 2023, temporarily closed and suspended canyoneering activities in Barangay Matutinao, Badian in Cebu, beginning on Friday until further notice. Cebu Governor announced that they will be demolishing the illegal structures within the defined easement zones of the falls and those abandoned structures and hazardous materials, most left in the wake of Typhoon Odette, around Kawasan Falls anytime soon.
Awesome guys enjoy have fun keep safe
