I’ve read a lot of stories on some blogs that the trek to the falls is very challenging but when I was there, it was a so-so. Since I’m used to trekking in most of my trips, it was a no-sweat trek. hahaha!
Ditumabo Falls in Baler came from the phrase ‘dito tumago’ because this is an old hideout for NPAs, as what our guide told us. But last 2010, it was approved that the name will be changed into Mother Falls.
It is a 30-45 mins trek before you reach the mother falls. On your way there, big boulders, a running river and dead coconut trees will be your view.
Why they’re dead? Recently a strong typhoon named Nona hit Aurora and it’s neighboring provinces.
Moreover, you will also have to cross 3 bamboo bridges that were made by the locals so be ready with some coins ’cause they’ll ask for donations for the maintenance.
Almost there.
Finally we have arrived so I immediately took a dip.
After a 10 minutes, I just left immediately *sobs* On a bright side, it’s a good thing I left early ’cause it’s surfing time!!
