Here are the 3 best hiking & trekking trips in the Philippines: what each one costs, how long it runs, and the kind of traveller it suits. Number one is up there for a reason, but read down before you commit.
4-day small-group hike from Manila to Ifugao villages, with Banaue and Batad terraces, Tappiyah waterfalls, village inn stay.
“The most memorable moment was actually to see the rice terrace open up infront of you. Hiking there made an impression.”
Early hike up Mt. Daraitan with a Tinipak River swim, small groups from Manila, and close guide support for muddy, slippery trails.
“Intense short hike with a great view from the top. The swim in the Tinipak river was a great way to cool off after with its clear and cool waters. Asia was knowledgeable about the area and a phenomenal guide for the day. Hike guide Willy was great as well and set a good pace over the rocky terrain on the way to the top. Highly recommend.”
A full-day Mount Pinatubo 4x4 and hiking trip from Manila, with riverbed trekking, Aeta culture stops, and crater lake views.
“4x4WD with bank seats at back (6) was quite simple and not comfortable, and definitely not justified to the high price of tour (other tour operators provided landcruiser).”
