Osmeña Peak is the highest point in Cebu and a popular hike to do while in the area.

Bur don’t picture a massive mountain climb. It’s actually a short 20-30 minute hike to the top (easy-moderate). 

What makes it special are the jagged, green hills that look a bit like Bohol’s Chocolate Hills, but smaller.

If you’re staying in Cebu, here’s a solid tour that takes you to Osmeña Peak and Kawasan Falls!

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • Short and easy hike.

  • Views stretch across Cebu and out to the sea on clear days.

  • Popular spot for sunrise or sunset, but it can get cloudy fast.

  • Basic facilities at the trailhead, with little shops.

TO ACCESS

  • About a 1-hour drive from Moalboal

  • You’ll need to park near the base and pay a small entry fee (₱30–₱50 last time we checked).

GOOD TO KNOW

  • Locals often offer to guide you for a tip but it’s not necessary, the trail is straightforward.

  • Bring a jacket, it can get surprisingly chilly and windy up top.

  • If you want more adventure, you can combine it with Casino Peak or waterfalls in the same area.
