Hard work pays off. 2. Even though it’s uncomfortable, you have to leave your comfort zone in order to grow, reach your goals, and arrive at your destination. 3. The world is a beautiful place. 4. There are so many better things to do with your time than spend it on a screen. 5. There is value in following a guide who knows the way (i.e., parents, grandparents, mentors, and church leaders). 6. You are capable of solving hard problems. 7. Trust yourself. 8. Push your limits; you’ll be surprised at what you can handle. 9. It’s easy to get focused on the climb—the hard parts. But don’t forget to look up and take in the view. It will remind you what you’re doing it for. 10. It develops your character - patience, persistence and determination NO GIVING UP. NO TURNING BACK.

One of my other photo footage is in Mt. Makiling Forest Reserve. It is a 5 hour climb, including a stopover starting at 6 am , reaching Peak 2 around 11 NN, and returning to Base 1 (without using habal-habal) at 6 pm. Registration is required in Station 1, and P60 fees are required to be paid prior to entry. There were Rafflesias in Station 14 and 21, some are blooming while others remained in bulbs. Camping is allowed only in Tayabak Campsite with prior registration is required. The eating area is located in Station 7 thru Tita Glo Sari-sari store. Toilets are located in Station 1 and Station 6 Picnic area only.

Hiked this mountain during Holy Week on March 30, 2024. Initially, I anticipated a relatively easy hike, given the forecast of sunny weather. However, upon arrival, we discovered that it had rained the previous night, resulting in very muddy and slippery trails, which made the hike extra challenging. Surprisingly, there were fewer leeches encountered during our hike. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed the experience, and we were granted clear skies by Maria. It took me a total of 7-8 hours to complete the hike, excluding rest breaks.

I can still remember my grandmothers' bedtime story about the beautiful and mysterious lady named Maria Makiling. Its all about the golden ginger hahaha, ordinary ginger turned to gold! amazing story. But still, Mount Makiling serves as out camping area during the PH National Jamboree, Jamborette and even Asia Pacific Jamboree, that's during my younger age as member of Boy Scouts of the PH...Makiling My Mysterious Place to explore.

one of the most exciting place to visit, and one of the most beautiful mountain to climb at, it is best for beginners and even to professional climbers. very accessible and easy to visit, it just an hour drive away from metro manila. and the climb it self only took 3 to 4 hours. i encourage every one to visit this place because of its very beautiful and refreshing views and sceneries , its worth the climb.

One of the best trek of my life. Though it rained, and there were Limatiks - Mount Makiling will always be one of my favorite mountains. The caully flower like view from the top is amazing. Also, I learned how to use a rope in here. Please be reminded that this is not a minor hike. We did a MakTrav - Makiling Traverse Hike. FYI. These images was from my blog as well.
