I have tried their Hilot with Ventosa and its Perfect! Such and excellent service and skillfull therapist! And one more thing about their Ventosa, its far way different because they practice a running ventosa thus it does not create a mark or hematoma on the back. And the ambiance is very relaxing! Such a perfect escape from stressful environment!

Really nice spot, it takes about 5-10 mins to hike from the entrance. Entry fee is 50php You can get a jeepnee from Centro (naga) almost the whole way for 30php, (may be 20 I forgot) then a motorbike rider will take you from where the jeepnee drops you to the entrance for 40-100 php.

As many information in previous blogs and the latest lonely planet are outdated, I try to provide here up to date information from our recent hike. First things first: We enjoyed the strenuous hike to the summit a lot, including my 7 year old daughter. The different layers of different forests are just fantastic and the trail is really nice. Although there is theoretically tons of wildlife do not expect to see to much. The guides are not trained to spot and identify them. We saw many different butterflies, poop of wild cats, many beetles and caterpillars and a number of different birds (plus the songs of many more birds), leeches, mosquitos, ants...... Practicalities: - You are now allowed to hike the summit in just one day. However, 5 hours up and always 5 hours down will only attract the fittest. Also consider that you would be at the summit around noon when the summit is often covered in clouds. If you stay overnight you get clear sun sets and sunrises with great views of the crater, Mt Mayon and the surroundings. - You are supposed to pay a permit. You can get this permit well ahead of the hike at the city hall of Naga from the environmental and natural resource office. Or, just pay at the gate of the park. For foreigners this is 500 P per person and per day. - You also need to pre-arrange a guide. Just call the head of the 12 guides called Jeffrey (09460961961). He can assign you a guide even at short notice (we did it the evening before). The guide fee is 600 Pesos per day. - If you do the overnight at the summit and you have not your own equipment you need to ask the guide to provide tent and gas cooker, pots and plates and spoons (600 Pesos). Our guide also carried tent and cooker to the top, put up the tent and helped cooking. Two words of warning: They do not have real mattresses and the ferns they put under the tent do not really help. For Filipinos a tent for two is good enough for up to 5 persons. So we forced to sleep with two kids in this small tent, which was not what we planned for. So ask to get two tents if you are more than two persons (they own only two tents). And expect night temperatures around 16 degrees. So bring some warm clothes and/or sleeping bag. - You need also to bring food for two lunches, dinner and breakfast. There are many places where you can refill your bottles. - Slippers do not really work, so bring hiking shoes, sneakers or sandals with socks to protect from leaches. - If you do the two day hike it is OK to take the 7:00 Jeepney from Naga to Pancuasson at the Jeep Terminal close to the New York Bakery where you can also stock up on Bakery goods before you leave. Tell the driver that you want to hike Mt. Isarog an he will kick you out at the right junction. From there you can either hike to the park entrance (30 min, around 200m in elevation) or hope to find a motorbike taxi. For the one-day hike you should probably take a 4:30 or 5:00 Jeepney. - At the park entrance you join the guide, pay the fee and have a first possibility to fill your bottles. From here it is around 1500m up in elevation, all in the forest. -after your descend there is enough time to swim in the nearby waterfall or if you need more heat in the hot springs. -you are likely to face also an hour oh rain. So bring rain coat and backpack cover. The hike is structured in 5 camps. We recommend to sleep at the top in Camp 5 to enjoy sun set and sun rise. The trail is nice and demanding. Fallen trees are not removed. So you are supposed to climb and duck many times.
