New Zip Line Connecting Two Islands in Hundred Islands Soon to Open
Alaminos City, Pangasinan -— Another zip line will soon open in the Hundred Islands National Park (HINP).
The new zip line is 480 meters long which will connect the Governor’s Island to the Virgin Island.
This is in addition to the zip line opened in the Quezon Island last June 7.
Sol Tablang, tourism officer of Alaminos City, revealed that the zip line helped boost the tourist arrival at HINP even during the rainy season.
“It seems we don’t have lean months here because even during rainy days, visitors keep coming”, he added.
He noted that tourists especially foreigners still insist on going to the islands despite bad weather.
“With their request we usually ask the authorities if they would allow us to sail and when we get approval then we accommodate them provided that they will ride on bigger boats,” he added.“We will open the new zip line on July 29 if the weather permits,” said Tablang.
