    Going back in April....a little rusty as I have not been back in 2 years so I am sure places, new businesses have been established, etc since.

    Anyone know of a place in Negros for canyoning? Have located a place near Moalboal but thats as close as I can find at the moment. I am sure there are some 'secret' places locally somewhere for waterfalls and other great places which are yet to be found....Any ideas?

    Palaypay falls had a incident on my last visit and were were highly advised not to go there due to the NPA/MILF shootout with the local authorities and army. Ended up being a local Silliman University student who was a rebel, etc. Anyone have relatives who know that it is safe to go there? I can ask my wifes cousins, but they are always so careful.....any word of 'Boo" or action in the area and its a no go zone, so I am obtaining information in advance so I can plan my 4 week stint.

    Anyone else keen for fishing for snake heads in local estuaries/rivers in 2nd week if April? I will bring some braided line for you from Oz as a bribe to keep me company :smile:

    Cheers for any updates or new info.

    Thanks for the response... Not after caving.... The canyoning I'm after is going down waterfalls. Moalboal has about 6 waterfalls cascading which you can go down or up.... And end up having I g a much deserved lunch after that... Will. Post some photos when I'm there if I can't find anything else in negros...

    Not on Negros but it's close:
    Aguinid Falls, Sanboan, Cebu

    This is one closer to Moalboal....not sure if you have been there or not:

    Thanks Wyre...have looked up Cyan adventures and Planet Action who do everything near moalboal... That's what I'm. Looking for... And anything else on Negros if any.

    Going to visit Niludhan falls in Bayawan and Campuestohan highland resort in Bacolod. It's a cool theme park hopefully which will rival Dalihayan adventure Park in Cagayan De Oro which we visited last trip
