Beautiful Balagbag Falls photo credit to http://thebackpackersadventures |
Balagbag Falls is located at Barangay Mapalad in Real Quezon. The Balagabag falls is a two-level falls with an upper portion ranging. I guess, three to four-story-high while the lower portion is about 20 feet high. And it is one of the most beautiful falls I have ever seen. After 30 minutes tricycle ride from The Park, we arrived at Balagbag Falls. Take note I don't know if we're just the early birds there, because I've noticed that we were the only people when we arrived at Balagbag Falls. Read more.

We enjoyed jumping off of the top of the fifteen-foot high falls down to its deep plunge pool. It really a very exciting experience. If will you try to jump off on the top of the falls, be sure to locate the spot where there is a huge rock underwater. Jumping down to that spot might be dangerous. Read more.

Each of us tried climbing up the falls from the rock formations along the side. We felt like being massaged by the strong flow of fresh cold water as we stood along its path towards the stream. The upper level of Balagbag Falls is way taller than the lower level. The flow of water at this level is different from the lower level. We were fascinated by the view of the falls along with the huge rock formation and the green forest that surrounds its beauty. The water flows gracefully from the top as it was run down to the cascading rocks beneath. The soothing sound of flowing water entices me to go nearer. Read me.

The sound of the following water and the chirping birds plus the smell of fresh air makes you want to stay in the place forever. The layer of the falls has approximately eight to ten feet deep base. We tried climbing up to the upper level through the rocks on the left side of the falls. Read more. |
