Kabutongan Falls: A magical adventure hidden in Malabuyoc

Kabutongan Falls is a four-level waterfall that was seemingly created for those who love canyoneering.

It has a magical adventure prepared for those who dare to explore it’s challenging yet very captivating trails. It is considered to be one of the most hidden waterfall systems within the island and just as it is difficult to find, it is also quite difficult to conquer.

Tucked in a forest area deep within Brgy. Looc of Malabuyoc, Kabutongan Falls hides an incomparable beauty within the thickets of trees and bushes that thrive in the distant barangay. The main cascade of Kabutongan Falls can be reached within 45 minutes to an hour of upstream river trekking from the trailhead.

The trail going to Kabutongan Falls follows glistening waters of a narrow stream flow from up the canyon and leads to the waterfall haven. The trail itself going to the waterfalls is a magical adventure as people pass by smaller cascades and other natural pools.

The main waterfall builds up on a lovely turquoise pool enclosed in giant stone walls freckled with the green of plants and other foliage. Within the enclosure of the smooth stones is like a secluded paradise of blue and green. Many who have visited the waterfalls claim to have a surreal and otherworldly experience within the confines of Kabutongan Falls.

The rejuvenating water and the comforting silence that fills the atmosphere definitely calms the mind and the body. Exploring deeper leads to a small cascade that hides behind it a secret cave that hides wonders and mysteries known only to those who have explored it.

Gullas Drive: A Scenic Stopover at the top of Minglanilla

Roads are a means for us to reach our destinations but in Cebu, some roads were meant to be the destination.

A certain road in Minglanilla is a famous stopover for locals especially to those who are looking to take a break from the journey of life. Located at the top of Minglanilla’s hills, Gullas Drive has become a famous destination among the locals due to the relaxing views of nature at the top. More than just being a road that takes people from one place to another, Gullas Drive gives visitors a sense of freedom and it soothes the soul with its tranquil ambiance.

Many bikers love to include Gullas Drive into their biking itinerary due to the breathtaking views that it possesses. On one side, it has an overlooking view of the city and on the other are mountainous terrains with the road sandwiched in between. Gullas Drive isn’t only a place of retreat for mountain bikers but it is a destination for anyone with a penchant for relaxing views and the scenery of nature.

Gullas Drive is a haven of peace and serenity that allows people to experience a moment of seclusion from the troubles and stresses that the distant city harbors. The hustle and bustle of the city are just but muffled sounds carried by the wind. On a warm and lovely day, the blue of the sky and green of the mountains fill the surroundings with life. The natural background rejuvenates those who visit, allowing their bodies and minds to relax momentarily.

For all the reasons mentioned above, Gullas Drive is the perfect place for a stopover.

Due to the fame of Gullas Drive, many food stalls have set up shop on the mountain drive to satiate the thirst and hunger of those who climb the mountain drive. Many habal-habals or motorcycles for hire are willing to take anyone to the scenic mountain road so access is the least of anyone’s problems.

Photo from Playa Del Carmelo Facebook Page

Playa del Carmelo sits comfortably along the shores of Maravilla and offers visitors of the white sand paradise budget-friendly and spacious cottages that’s perfect a for a hearty salu-salo.

The white sand strip of the beach extends quite the distance on both ends and the beachfront also has the space to accommodate many families. Lining the pristine shores are rows of palm trees that extend just as long as the beach and as far as the eye can see. Turquoise waters also trace the coastline and go as far as the eye can see – truly a tropical paradise.

The expansive beach of Playa del Carmelo gives everyone ample space for everyone to do virtually any kind of activity in the sands. The lack of rocks and pebbles on the sand make the experience much more pleasant and comfortable making activities such as beach volleyball or frisbee much more enjoyable.

Everyone can lay down their picnic cloth and there would still be enough space where kids could run around and chase one another.

Note, as of this time of pandemic, beach camping has been prohibited.

Playa del Carmelo is the definition of a tropical paradise with a beauty that can make anyone forget the stresses of life.

They offer three floating cottages, made of native materials such as bamboo and nipa roofs, that float over perfectly turquoise waters glistening just along the coastline of the barangay beside the beautiful white sands. It is the perfect way to spend a getaway for ocean lovers and enthusiasts.

On the cottage, everyone will be able to appreciate the views of the island of Zaragoza, the beautiful Moalboal, and fabulous display of Negros Occidental. The floating cottages offer ample space for families to enjoy a feast over the seas of Badian and at the same time enjoy getting some tans from the sun. One of the floating cottages can accommodate up to 50 persons at a time while another two can cater up 30 persons each.

Aside from getting suntanned skins and enjoying the floating experience, there are other activities that everyone can enjoy while in the floating cottage. The vast sea is the perfect tropical swimming pool for snorkeling, scuba diving, or coral watching.

The waters underneath hide vibrant corals which can only be discovered by those who brave the deep blue. If coral viewing seems too daunting, then kayaks are available to rent and can be enjoyed without diving. Due to the cottage being quite distant from the shore, it is positioned in a lovely spot for watching the sun set.

Cambais Falls: The ultimate waterfall playground in Alegria

Waterfall chasing is an enjoyable activity that is both fun and exciting. Many towns in the southern parts of Cebu hide within forests and groves of trees but are just within short distances of one another.

Cambais Falls is one of those hidden wonders in the south. Situated in the mountains of southern Cebu, Cambais waterfalls captivates all those who visit it and enchants them with its charming beauty. It is a multi-leveled waterfall with turquoise waters that attract active trekkers and curious explorers who love a good adventure. The waterfalls possess a unique and exquisite beauty that makes it hard to compare to other waterfalls in the south. Beyond the forests and the trekking trails is a beautiful waterfall paradise secluded from the world and the bustling city.

Inside this waterfall paradise hidden within the hills of Alegria are the various levels with attractions of their own. Those who have visited the waterfalls consider it as nature’s playground with the fun activities that could be done in Cambais Falls. The waterfalls are spread on 3 different levels all offering something different to keep things exciting. Visitors can scale the waterfalls, swim in the hidden caves, or jump on the cliffs into the refreshing pools.

3 levels of Cambais falls

There are three accessible levels in Cambais Falls. The first level has a perfectly turquoise water surrounded by ferns, giant rocks, and trees. The waterfalls at this level cascades gently over a limestone cliff wall from a height of about 25 feet. This creates a beautiful scene when watched from the lower level. Just a few meters to the right is a lower but much more powerful stream of water. Underneath the falls are some shallow rocks which give a lovely perspective of the waterfall paradise.

The second level is easily accessible from the first level through ropes that are fixed at the right side of the waterfalls and a bamboo staircase that leads there. There are foot holes carved onto the wall so climbing the ropes wouldn’t require as much raw strength. There are more plants and vegetation growing at the second level so light doesn’t reach this level as much as the first level. It’s a perfect spot to freshen up especially on very hot days.

The last level is another lovely spot with quite the number of activities. At the left side is a big, strong waterfall that can be climbed. On the right-hand side, there is a 20-foot cliff to jump from into the pools below. A natural slide can also be found at the right side where the cliff is and drops off into the middle.

It’s definitely worth it to visit the waterfall playground of Cambais Falls when in Alegria!
