Tinuy-an Falls

Reviewed By AlbertodelaPaz - Chiang Rai, Thailand

This was a side trip for us after visiting the Enchanted River at Hinatuan, Surigao province on the island of Mindanao, Philippines. This Pacific Ocean facing province of Mindanao is home to one of the largest - if not, the Largest pulp and paper factory in the Philippines. The forests are still rather lush, but you can see Albicia falcata trees planted in many places. This tree is used for the pulp and paper factory. Tinuy-an falls is around 30 km from the City of Bislig and is accessible by a concrete road all the way to the park. When we visited in September 2019, the park was not overrun by tourists - even on a weekend (Saturday). The grounds were regularly swept of leaves and people seemed to be mindful of where the disposed of their trash. Entrance fee was 50 pesos per person and parking was 20 pesos per vehicle (we had a Toyota pick-up. An official receipt was issued by the Office of the Treasurer - so I assume this place is run by the local government (as with the Enchanted Forest). All swimmers or raft riders were required to have floatation devices and enforcement of this regulation as ensured. There was a cell phone tower nearby so I was able to post photos of this place right from the site. Really convenient and tourist friendly. There were a few benches and tables for small groups. There was not much water at the falls as there has been an unseasonal drought spell. Ordinarily there would be much more water cascading down the falls. This is a truly wonderful place.
