The Enchanting Batlag Falls


Situated in a dense forest where Daranak Falls is located, a further ascend of 10 minutes trek through a cemented pavement leads to the enchanting and perhaps one of the most beautiful waterfalls that the I have visited (as of this writing). A separate entrance fee of 100 pesos is collected in the entrance of a makeshift gate that says “Batlag Falls”, offers a paradise-like setting, truly a serene sight to behold.

Batlag Falls is composed of two waterfalls: the smaller on the left looks like a bridal veil and the larger one with unusual cascade, each has a catchbasin. The site has been a favorite shooting place for “Enteng Kabisote”.

 How to Get There:

1.) From Shaw Boulevard, ride a Jeepney bound for Tanay
2.) You can alight at Tanay Public Market, or tell the driver to drop you off in Plaza Aldea.
3.) Either way, you will need to flagged/hire a trike to get you there.
