Took this hike right before sunset, didnt quite reach the top, decided to descend due to darkness coming, made it roughly 75% of the way in about 1 1/2 hours. Its a steep trail that is paved 50% up, then non marked trail the rest of the way, dont worry about being amongst locals houses, some are sari saris, selling goods to help you along the way and the rest being friendly faces willing to point you in the right direction if youre unsure where to head. Take your time, breaks a plenty with views to enjoy, and watch your step. You will probably encounter chickens, goats, dogs, and cows on your journey, be friendly and quick and they will leave you be. If youre tired from walking up, there is a way to drive back down, normally by hiring a trike. Beautiful views that should be experienced by all. If you feel up for a workout i strongly suggest taking advantage of this hike. Yes there is trash, it could be cleaner, but try not to let it diminish your experience.

Bangkong Kahoy translates to Wooden Bench, hence the name “bangko” which was derived from live tree trunks and branches. About 2-hours drive from Metro Manila, Bangkong Kahoy Valley sits between the mountains of Mt. Banahaw and Mt. Cristobal; a comfortable haven for weekend trekkers, bird watchers and anyone who wants to escape to a cool and quiet retreat. One gets a magnificent view of two mountains interacting with the moods of sun, the wind and the rain, constantly changing, always proclaiming the glory of its Maker.
Dolores Quezon is a town near San Pablo,Laguna.A town of nature and tranquility. Bangkong Kahoy is situated at Brgy. Kinabuhayan in Dolores. Going to the valley is a little bit rough due to its unpaved roads. When you reach Brgy. Kinabuhayn, you will be welcomed by tall trees and giant ferns.There you will see the Brgy. Hall where you will have to pay 10php as toll. Then you will have to travel for about 15mins on a bumpy road before reaching the Bangkong kahoy valley. The view itself is picturesque and tranquil. Fresh air and cool breeze. You just need a picnic mat and you're good. It is one of the most perfect picnic sites I have been to. Full green sceneries is waving to you haha. The staffs are friendly and very hospitable. For 70php entrance, I can consider it cheap for the beautiful view and experience. They also have a free cup of barako coffee (famous coffee in batangas) If you are planning to visit the valley and stay for awhile, you have to contact them so they can have enough time to prepare. Overall experience here is superb, great view, great staffs for a cheap price????

I've been living in the area for around 13 years, and it was on my 6th year that I get to enjoy birding here, when I learned basic photography. I can share with you several birding spots, not usually visited by visiting birders. I learned about these just a year ago as well. Early morning walks before going to the office get me more acquainted of the bird species in the area. Mt. Makiling is a great birding site with a lot of endemic birds to see! It's just an hour away from Metro Manila.

It was a pleasant surprise to discover this hidden paradise. This was my second option to go to. When I arrived, i found it unique because before reach the beach, you have to pass by a rice field. The sand is fine and the water is crystal clear! Love to be back there again someday.
