Sanchez Peak — Local services in General Santos

Great for all outdoor enthusiasts, backpackers, mountaineers, trail runners or just a typical seasoned climber. See GenSan's panoramic view in this place while experiencing the outdoors. Take a glimpse of almost all mountain ranges of South Cotabato, GenSan and Sarangani; including the Majestic Mt. Matutum. Sanchez Peak is accessible by Balisinang Trail and Balakayo Trail. Balisinang Trail is recommended for those who wants to take the true hiking experience (the trek will take for about 2-3 hours). The Balakayo Trail however, is already accessible for 4X4 vehicles. At the peak, there are numerous accommodations like huts, tent rentals and tent areas. A must-visit place, for outdoor and nature lovers. (You can also do reservations, food preparations like native chicken and tour/mountain guides.)

If you want, do contact me and experience Sanchez Peak in an awesome way. And get a chance to have photos taken by me and be included in my Kim Tiblani Adventures : Weekend Warriors vlog and album. Yep, I do it during weekends. So see you here on your next trip!

The place is recommended for team building activities and visitors can also camp here. You can also request the caretakers to cook for you, although the choice is very limited - we had adobo. There is no water at the peak and the toilet needs improvement. There are also some basic huts for rent if you want to spend more time here although there is not much to do here at the moment.
