Branches

Tagaytay

The Sky Ranch branch in Tagaytay is situated along Tagaytay–Nasugbu Highway, Tagaytay, Cavite which opened in March 2013. It is located inside a property owned by SM Investments Corporation's subsidiary SM Land commercial property division (later merged with SM Prime Holdings, Inc),[1] where several shops and restaurants are also located.[2] It includes kiosks, rides, and the Sky Eye Ferris wheel, which is 63 metres (207 ft) tall and has 32 gondolas.[3] The amusement park temporarily closed following ash fall caused by the Taal Volcano eruption on January 12, 2020 but reopened almost a week later on January 18.[4]

Pampanga

The Sky Ranch branch in San Fernando, Pampanga is part of the SM City Pampanga shopping mall complex. It also hosts the Pampanga Eye, a 65 metres (213 ft) tall Ferris wheel.[5]

Baguio

The Sky Ranch branch in Baguio opened in 2018. Its opening was met with opposition from surrounding universities which expressed concern on noise pollution generated by the park.[6]
