Mt. Gulugod Baboy


Mt. Gulugod Baboy lies in Brgy. Maligaya, Mabini Batangas. The mountain is good for beginners since it is a 2-hour and a moderate trail. The campsite can accommodate a large number of hikers. But what is most awaited here is when you go down. There are lots of diving resorts here where you can jump in after the trek.


The trek, actually should a day trek, but because of some pasaways, we're started to ascend at 6 and reach the campsite at 8. I don't bring my headlamp since we'll reach the campsite with the sun still up...pasaway din pala ako..But still we reached the campsite safe and all complete thanks to Kuya Anoy maliwanag ang headlamp nya, saka all my expenses were paid by him..libre nya tlga ako..hehehe..


Si Kuya Anoy yong nasa likod ko..yong nakaharap hemple..
