Lazaan-Bukal Nature Hike

We will take chartered vehicle from Nagcarlan town proper to Brgy Lazaan . At the jump off point (starting point), we’ll take few minutes checking our gears and filling-up our water bottles. The concrete pavement ascend towards the foot trail will warm us up for the nature hike.
May we remind everyone again not to pick floras (and faunas) that may attract our attention along the trail. It is recommended to just satisfy ourselves by taking pictures as souvenirs as we walk our path towards our destination. Upon reaching the concrete bridge overlooking the beauteous eastern flank of Mt. Banahaw, we will regroup and take some pictures before we all together proceed to the tramline.
At the tramline, participants may wish to take a break and have a refreshing early snacks ( or late breakfast) while others take some time to enjoy the view. After everyone has arrived and cooled down, it’s time to take our group picture with the tramline and the magnificence of Mt. Banahaw as our background. Before we descend, perhaps participants may wish to buy some veggies at the locals (in season: pipino, sayote, repolyo and string beans). After which, we will take public transport going back to Nagcarlan town proper to conclude our Lazaan-Bukal nature hike. Though the highest point of our hike is about 679 masl, this is considered a “1-booter hike” since the hike inclination is only about 491 masl . About 188 masl being the elevation of our jump off point. The hike is recommended even for beginners or inexperienced hikers. Please arrive at the assembly area on time so we can arrange participants’ vehicle to bring us to our jump off point.
