The dry run aims to determine the readiness of the tourism circuit for regional and national validation including the identification of gaps and enhancements necessary to ensure the completeness of the product experience.
The Five-Day Four-Night (5D4N) tourism circuit is the output of a series of workshops and dialogues with the tourism stakeholders of the municipality under the Domestic Tourism Program of the Department of Tourism Regional Office No. 2.
The dry run was participated in by members of the Sangguniang Bayan Committee on Tourism, tourist police officers, accredited tour guides, boat operators, Divilacan Riders Association, Homestay Operators, and regional, provincial and municipal tourism officials.
The first day of the circuit ended with a tree-planting activity entitled ‘Tree for a Legacy Activity’ in Barangay Dimapula Ripparian Zone since it is a major requirement of the tourism department in the promotion of an Ecotourism Zone, particularly in Protected Areas in order to balance the carbon footprints of the visitors to the area.
The dry run will run until June 14, 2022.
Divilacan is located at the Northern Sierra Madre Natural Park ( NSMNP) facing the Pacific Ocean. It can be accessed by taking a light plane from Cauayan City and Tuguegarao City Domestic Airport or by boat via San Vicente Port in Santa Ana, Cagayan. (MDCT/PIA Cagayan)
