Hike to Casaroro Falls



Casaroro Falls is a refreshing mountain waterfall dropping from the jungle of Mt. Talinis, the mountain that towers behind Dumaguete City. It is a sight to behold as a 20-meter column of white water heavily pours down from the mountain. The catch basin is a refreshing pool challenging swimmers with the powerful current coming from the falls.


From Manila, you can go to Dumaguete City where there are daily flights (Philippine Airlines and Cebu Pacific). It takes less than 30 minutes travel from Dumaguete City to Valencia. You can either hire a van or any private vehicle to go there or you can also use public conveyance. From the town of Valencia, you can hire a motorcycle called "habal-habal" and ask the driver to take you to the top of the mountain road to access the entrance of the falls. To witness this natural beauty, you will need to hike your way down through a steep but well-marked stairs.

Pagsanjan Falls

Pagsanjan Falls is one of the most popular waterfalls in the Philippines. It is locally known as ‘Magdapio Falls’. Its wonderful cascade is approximately 91 meters high. Behind the falls is a cave worth exploring.

The only passable route to this famed falls is through the Bumbungan River of Pagsanjan, Laguna. To reach the Falls, tourists shall ride the traditional Filipino boat or banca for a fee. These boats are manned by skilled boatmen or bangkeros who have mastered the awesome current of the river. Tourists may wander under the falls and explore the cave behind the falls while riding a bamboo raft. The Falls is also known to treat visitors as they get ‘massaged’ under the falls. The base of the falls is a natural pool great for swimming and diving. Shooting the rapids is another exciting treat, as tourists rapidly descent downstream passing approximately fourteen rapids.
