Where grasslands meets the sky
The Hidden Gem of Southern Cebu
Located in Barangay Upper Becerril, Boljoon, Ablayan Peak is fast becoming a favorite among adventure seekers and nature lovers. Known for its wide grasslands, panoramic mountain-and-sea views, and cool highland breeze, this mountaintop escape is often described as a “park in the sky.”
Views from the Summit
The summit is a broad grassy plateau where travelers are greeted with 360° views stretching to Negros and Bohol. A unique feature is a boundary stone that allows visitors to stand in both Boljoon and Malabuyoc at the same time. With its open terrain, Ablayan Peak is ideal for picnics, day trips, or overnight camping under the stars.
Beyond the Peak
For those seeking more adventure, a trail from the summit leads to Dayhag Falls. The descent takes about 45 minutes to an hour through rocky paths, best tackled with sturdy shoes, but rewards hikers with a refreshing natural pool perfect for cooling off.
