Mt. Sembrano + Manggahan, Batlag, and Daranak Falls
βMT. SEMBRANO + THREE FALLS HIKE π₯Ύ
βManggahan Falls β’ Daranak Falls β’ Batlag Falls
βAnother Candid Club hiking trip, and this time we're squeezing in three waterfalls after a mountain summit!
βWe're heading to Rizal to hike Mt. Sembrano, a beginner-friendly mountain with forest trails, rocky climbs, open grasslands, and views overlooking Laguna de Bay.
βAfter the hike, we're making our way to Manggahan, Daranak, and Batlag Falls for a much-needed dip and a little time to enjoy the water.
βIt's a full day outdoors, so expect an early start, plenty of walking, and very tired legs by the time we get home. π
