Set foot on the southernmost tip of the municipality by
the flank of Banahaw-San Cristobal Complex and enjoy bountiful sceneries best
viewed nowhere else but NAGCARLAN.
Cool mountain breeze, sandyloam foot trails, glorious
landscapes all summed-up to cater a wonderful experience of paradise-like beauty
only our hometown can best offer.
Don’t forget to bring with you:
Hiking essentials (what’s inside
your backpack)
1.5 liters of water/pax
Planting essentials for “AHON tayo
at Magtanim” Tree Parenting
Shoutouts about nature
“Leave No trace” Outdoor Ethics
We will charter a jeepney to our jump-off point and
from there we will at once enjoy the trail leading to “Saimsim” Strawberry
Fields. An hour stay at the place is
allotted for AHON participants to fully enjoy strawberry picking, tasting and
picture taking. May we remind everyone that we need to pay for the strawberries
that we will consume or bring home. At a
nearby place, we will plant trees and fulfill our “AHON tayo at Magtanim” tree
parenting program.
We resume hiking exploring “Kakawa Crater” and go down on
its 1.5 hectares base. After a while, we
will ascend towards “Gunaw” area to better experience more picturesque views of
the environs. Then traverse to the adjacent “Braulla” area where the historical
“Landing Point” is exactly situated. Landing Point campsite will be our last
stop and our lunch area. While we eat, we get to enjoy superb sceneries of the
towns of San Pablo,Rizal,Nagcarlan and Liliw. Descending is
equally pleasurable due to lush greeneries covering our path from the heat of
the noontime sun.
Yes, Nagcarlan has strawberries. Yes, there is a crater nearby. And yes, Landing Point which has great
historical significance are truly our own!
Better see them to believe them. Guaranteed, this hike is certainly addictive!
