This was one of our favourite waterfall hikes in Cebu! 

Getting there is half the fun, as it takes about 30 min walking through streams and bamboo bridges before reaching the beautiful waterfall.

There are a few tours available from Cebu, we recommend this one as it’s a full-day and includes all the main waterfalls - Dao, Inambakan, Kawasan and Mantayupan waterfalls

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • You will get your feet wet on the way so plan ahead.

  • There are some slippery bits but it’s not a hard hike.

  • You can swim at the base, the water’s cold but perfect after the walk.

  • Quieter than Kawasan Falls, so you might even get it to yourself.

TO ACCESS

  • About an hour from Moalboal, or 3–4 hours from Cebu City.

  • Small entry fee plus a local guide (mandatory, included in tours).

  • If going on your own, plan for at least half a day with travel time.
