Alpine coasters are a popular ride at many resorts in Europe. (Has anyone here heard of the 3,300 foot-long Glacier 3000 alpine coaster in Gstaad, Switzerland?!) Basically, the ride resembles an outdoor roller coaster with bobsled-like carts that run down a track on a hill.
With its exquisite highlands, the Philippines most definitely makes a great alpine coaster spot! It’s fascinating how this can pave the way to a higher tourism rate in Bukidnon — an underrated gem in Northern Mindanao. (On that note, make sure to travel safely, everyone!)
