TANAY RIZAL DAY TOUR : Treasure Mountain, Calinawan Cave, Kawa Bath, Daranak Falls and Pililla Windm


They say that everyone needs someone who will call and say: "Get dressed, we're going on an adventure". That is so true and I am happy I have the an amazing squad who also loves adventures. So, when one of my friends asked who wanted to join her Tanay day tour, I was the one of those who said, "Count me in". :) Certified lakwatsera here. :)

The original plan was to visit Treasure Mountain alone, but since we found out that there are also other places in Rizal that we can visit in just 1 day, we came up with a day tour itinerary.

Here are the places we visited:

1. Treasure Mountain

2. Kawa Bath

3. Calinawan Cave

4. Daranak Falls

5. Pililla Windmill

The trip isn't a DIY travel. We got help from a friend who's from a travel agency. He was the one who suggested to visit other places aside from Treasure Mountain.

TREASURE MOUNTAIN - Sea of Clouds - this was the main reason why I wanted to visit Treasure mountain. Unluckily, we weren't able to witness it, but we did enjoyed the sunrise and the pictures-view mountain top.

KAWA HOT BATH - I always wanted to go to Antique so I could experience Kawa Bath, good thing they already have it in Rizal.

You have to pay for Php 300 for one kawa in an hour. Since 6 of us wanted to try it, what we did was we divide the price into six and take turns in kawa bath. haha

CALINAWAN CAVE - We already tried Lumiang Sumaguing Cave Connection in Sagada, but Calinawan Cave is a different experience. We were amazed with the stalagmites, stalactites and different rock formations inside the cave. This is also where they shot some of the scenes in La Luna Sangre, Bagani, Ang Probinsyano and a lot more.

It's actually dark inside so we need to be extra careful and watch our heads all the time. Some visitors explores level 1 and 2 only, but we did explore up until level 5. There is also level 6 to 7 which are still inaccessible as of writing.

This shot was taken after we finished the spelunking. :)

DARANAK FALLS - Our next stop is Daranak falls. Swimming time it is. I wasn't able to get a picture of the falls because I got excited. Plus, there are a lot of people when we visit. We have an option to go to Bagtag Falls(private falls) but we opted to stay in Daranak Falls.

PILILLA WINDMILL - I never thought I could see windmills near the Metro, aside from the famous windmills in Ilocos and Guimaras. :)
