Niludhan Falls is an eye catching place in Barangay Dawis, Bayawan City. Considered to be one of the pride of Negros Oriental. Even though the falls is near to the municipality of Mabinay, the barangay where it is situated, it is actually a part of Bayawan City. The falls was called Niludhan or (Kneeling) because of local stories that the water buffalos used in farming must kneel after crossing the top of the falls because of the rough and rugged trail.

The waterfall is around 25 meters wide and has a 40-meter vertical drop
that builds a beautiful curtain of water. The plants around the area are
also magnificent. The white color of the falls combined with the green
of the plants and the blue of the sky make every angle a perfect shot. Read More!

There was no other people on the site when we arrived at Niludhan falls.
There was even no caretakers assigned to collect for entrance fee and
rental for huts. Its totally undevelop compare to other waterfalls in
the country. We just spent few minutes enjoying the view and take
snapshots then left the area. If only we have enough time, I will not
hesitate to take a dip into its water. Also another factor that made us
decide not to spend much time on the falls is the bad weather and it
seemed that a heavy downpour is coming anytime and we still have to
travel to the next barangay. Read More!

Niludhan Falls is one of the best kept secrets of Negros Oriental.
Situated in the heart of the Negros Island, Niludhan Falls offers cold
soothing water that drops from a river about 2 to 3 storey-high. You
have to keep an open eye during the whole trip because the falls is
actually hidden and you won’t know that a small river along the road
actually goes directly down to this falls. This means, on top of that
falls, is where a small overflow bridge along the Bayawan-Mabinay
National Road. Read More!

It took me around 10 minutes before I finished rappelling down and
landed my foot on a piece of rock with in the cliff which was still
quite high above the water. After I detached the ropes and removed the
harness from my body, I breathed in some oxygen first before jumping to
around 10 meter high cliff. Read More!
