Taytay Falls, Majayjay, Laguna

Taytay Falls, located at Barangay Gagalot, Majayjay, Laguna, has one of the clearest flowing water we have yet seen. The water flows from Mt. Banahaw, through the mountain's lush and untouched forest which keeps the water clear even during heavy rains. The water temperature is VERY cold even during summer but, for people who are not used to cold water, they can still take a swim for a few minutes before their teeth should start to chatter.
One must hike about 15 minutes through a small path to reach the falls. No way around this. And the hike is not for the not-so-sure-footed either! The path is slippery at some sections and is just a couple of feet from the almost-vertical side of the mountain.

After setting up our tents, we climbed at the topmost of the falls by heading at the trail at the left side, only to realize that it has another falls atop. And as we moved on, there’re I think more or less four another falls on the crest. But it was dangerous to climb as the rocks were very slippery.

Mt. Tarak, Maraviles, Bataan

Tarak Peak is situated in Maraviles, Bataan. To head for Bataan, we took a ferry in the seaport at Roxaz Boulevard. While sailing, Mother Nature unveiled the calm sea and the lucid blue sky. The scenic view was apparently facade and the sight utterly relieves the burnout we get from the loads of office works in the city. We arrived at the place in no time. It took us 1 hour to reach the place. From the wharf, we need to hire a van to take us to Maraviles. At around 2 o’ clock we started trekking. The sun was at its peak, and so the heat was really intense. But this occurrence did not serve as hurdle for us to keep going. We marched along the wilderness determined. And then after the long trek we reached Papaya River. The sun has gone down below the horizon so we opted to set our camp, and agreed to climb the peak the next day. That night was very cold. And the water in the river was chilled so we can’t take a swim. The sound of drifting water is very relaxing and calming. A chitchat and social drinking ends the night after an arduous walk.
