Mt. Balagbag - Mt. Maranat


Our meetup place for this hike is the Jollibee in along EDSA in Kamuning. After all the members of our group that will be coming from Manila have been assembled at around 10am, we were on our way to Tungko by taking a Fairview-Tungko ordinary bus with the fare costing of P35. We alighted at Jollibee Tungko to wait for the other members coming from fairview area and so we procedeed to have an early lunch at Jollibee. After buying our supplies at the market just behind Jollibee, we were on our way to the jeepney station with the jeeps on route to Licao-licao at around 1pm.

Itinerary for Mt. Talamitam - Mt. Batulao (Twin Hike)

I would like the share our itinerary used for our twin hikes at Mt. Talamitam and Mt. Batulao which caters to beginners and first time hikers like me as well as the costs for the whole trip. :)


Lunch Out: North Park

On a wednesday lunch out, We planned to eat at North Park. Since this is my first time, I thought this will be just the same as every experience I had. I'm quite used to just eat everywhere and anywhere accessible, near, hassle free, and of course, budget wise.

Batangas Twin Hike Part II: Mt. Batulao




As said from the previous blog post (first Part of Batangas Twin Hike Part I: Mt Talamitam), We were on our way to Evercrest from Km. 83. For the bus ride, we had to pay a fare of P25. Upon arriving at Evercrest, tricycle drivers flocked us offering a ride that will take us to the village near the jumpoff. We first rejected their offers as we need to resupply first on the sari-sari stores right in front of Evercrest across the highway. After resupplying, we got a tricycle ride which costs P110 for 4 persons and off we go.


Batangas Twin Hike Part I: Mt. Talamitam



First time to hike a mountain, correction its MOUNTAINS. Mt. Talamitam and Mt. Batulao twin hike in Batangas. I never expect myself to go as far as it has been. Its like telling and asking myself, "Hiking a mountain?? walking, trekking, climbing under the unexplanably heat of the SUN?!" oh well, Im some kind of a person that never-goes-out whenever the sun is striking so hot.
