Unlike your usual mountain stopover, Libo Hills feels like a natural balcony, overlooking the Tañon Strait with Negros Island right across. Whether drenched in sunshine or cloaked in fog, the view is always dramatic. Sunrise paints the skies with warm hues, while late afternoons are best for quiet reflection as the mountain breeze rolls in.

Where Farming Meets Tourism

What makes Libo Hills unique is how it ties the simple lives of locals with tourism. Known for its vegetable farms thriving in the cold climate, the area offers a taste of rural Alegria, fresh produce straight from the ground, friendly locals tending to their crops, and the refreshing smell of pine-like trees that line the highland roads. It’s no wonder people call it the “Little Baguio of Alegria.”

A Stop Worth the Climb

For road trippers, bikers, and weekend wanderers, Libo Hills is a natural rest stop. Visitors can take a breather here, enjoy snacks while wrapped in cool winds, or set up camp to fully soak in the mountain vibe. It’s the kind of place where time slows down, reminding you to pause and appreciate Cebu’s quieter gems.
