Description

Trek to Nagpatong Rock Formation and visit Tungtong Falls in Rizal when you book this day hike tour. This activity already comes with the assistance of a guide, registration fees, environmental fees, roundtrip transfers from Metro Manila or Cavite, and a personalized event bag tag. You also have the option to purchase an upgrade to this tour so you can add Mt. Masungki to your itinerary.

You will be picked up from your accommodation in Metro Manila or Cavite (1 pickup point only), but if you are coming from Batangas, Laguna, Quezon, North Luzon, and Central Luzon, you may pay an additional fee for transfers. To ensure you reach the mountain's peak by sunrise, you will be picked up at 11 PM the day before your scheduled climb. 

Once you've been picked up, you'll head to Barangay Cuyambay in Rizal. Your expected time of arrival is around 2:30 AM. Once there, you may eat early breakfast (at your own expense) to keep you energized throughout the hike. After registration, stretching, and a briefing by the guides, you will begin your trek to the Nagpatong Rock Formation. You should reach the top just in time to see the sunrise at around 6  AM. At the peak, you'll be free to relax for 2 hours to have enough time to take in the view and capture the scenery. Afterward, you'll head back down to the jump-off point. 

If you are a more seasoned trekker, you can upgrade your hike so you can summit the nearby Mt. Masungki as well. Those who opt to head to Mt. Masungki will have lunch (at their own expense) after reaching the top. Meanwhile, those who prefer the beginner-friendly hike can have their meals earlier. 

Following your meal, you'll head to Tungtong Falls. Here you can take a refreshing dip and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. You have free time to explore the falls, so make the most out of it. Once you are done, you'll head back to the jump-off point and be escorted back to Metro Manila or Cavite.

Explore some of Rizal's natural attractions with the help of this day hike tour. Check the availability by choosing a date.
