La Mesa Eco Park is located in Quezon City. You can get there by riding the MRT/LRT and most buses or FX en route to or from SM Fairview. My friend and I rode the MRT to Quezon Avenue station and rode an FX from there. A tricycle ride, which costs P10.00, will take you straight to the entrance. Entrance to the park costs P50.00 (incredibly cheap!) but if you have a Quezon City resident in company, it will be even better because the entrance fee will be reduced to P20.00.
On the way to the park is a very relaxing path which will instantly make you forget that you are in the middle of a busy city.
At the park, you can pretty much do whatever you like. There are plenty of activities that you can choose
from.
There is a Wall Climbing Area and a Nature Path for those who seek adventure.
Swimming complex for those who wants to swim.
Plenty of cottages all around the property for those who just wants to relax and enjoy the feel of nature
around them, and so much more.
And of course, because we’re always on a tight budget, we just chose to walk around and then chill in the free tables scattered around the property (the cottages cost P500.00 which was a little too pricey for a group of only four). It was so relaxing there that it felt like the best thing to do.
Eventually though, we couldn’t resist the prospect of cool water in the pool that we just had to get in. The entrance to the pool will cost an additional P80.00, but I have to say, it was well worth it.
In conclusion, La Mesa Eco Park is definitely a must-visit. It fits all the requirements for a perfect cheap getaway. Not only is it budget-friendly, it has a very peaceful environment that can be an absolute stress-reliever and it is also an entire property full of fun things to do.
I am already looking forward to my next visit to La Mesa Eco Park.
