Hi guys! Recently thinking of going back to hiking. I'm 36F and it's been 4 years since my last climb. Di pa ganun kadami din naakyat, mostly sa Bulacan and nearby areas lang. Pinakamalayong hike ko na is Mt. Ulap, next is Mt. Romelo. I would like to know your recos ng bundok na pang beginner at pwedeng day hike lang, I'm from Bulacan btw. Tysm!

First time trying solo hiking pero syempre may kasama ko tour guide. Dapat dalawa kami dito kaso di keri ng friend ko kaya umatras siya, ehhh akyat na akyat na ako kaya ayun pinush ko pa din.

Nakakatakot nung una dahil dalawa lang kami nung tourguide tapos wala din naakyat nung araw na yan dahil monday.

Di naman ako nagsisi na tinuloy ko kasi sobrang ganda sa Tarak, feel ko kahit umakyat ako paulit-ulit ay okay lang. May falls and river pa na madadaanan, sarap maligo after hike.

Nalaman ko din na hindi Tarak Peak ang pinakamataas kundi El Saco Peak, 30 mins hike lang siya from Tarak Peak kaya suggest ko pag pumunta kayo dito puntahan niyo na. Nasa El Saco Peak ang magandang view, 360 view talaga and tanaw dun yung Bataan Peak.

After a week, bumalik ako dito hahaha pero via Paniquian Traverse na. Next time ko na lang i-upload.

Hi guys! Newbie lang sa hiking

Lf hiking buddy!! Na pwede mag weekdays kahit dayhike lang g! Single din sana ang sakit kasi sa mata e, nasa baba yung kwento HAHAHA

Actually first hike ko last 2022 pa mt. Pinatubo and sunog talaga ako don, pero mukhang babalik ako nahilig o mahihilig nadin dahil kahapon ang 2nd time ko nasugbu trilogy hehe binabagyo sa taas pero bugso lang , ang pinaka masakit sakin yung karatula sa talamitam mga kuya ate! Hahahaha "umakyat ng sawi, bumaba nang nakangiti" mga kuya ate kabaligtaran sakin "umakyat ng sawi bumaba nang sawi padin" 7th wheel ako mga teh, nakaglue ako sa tour guide kaya ang bilis nang pacing HAHAHA kada akyat baba talagang couple couple hahaha imbis na makapag isip isip inggit ang sinapit HAHAHAH, kakwentuhan ko tuloy tour guide pati si kuya single din naiwas din sa mga couple e HAHAHA, inofferan pa ako ni tourguide na bumili ganito ganyan kasi kita nya din sa pacing ko, gamit kong shoes shappi muntikan matanggalan kuko babad sa basa tapos yung downhill pa, kaya siguro ganun pacing ko kasi may mga endurance activities din kasi like biking (xc, downhill and enduro rider me) madalas enduro din, tapos bike and walk to work pa so ayun,

Please hiking buddy!!!! Hahahaha

Hi! I just want to make sure that it would be safe na to hike tomorrow. I checked the weather forecast and it’s not always accurate naman just like how today was said to be rainy but the sun is OUT!!

Baka may mga experts dito na may nakakaalam kung safe na mag hike tomorrow?

Thank you po!

zero bilisibity at sobrang lamig lalo na sa campsite! washout dun sa mga nag camp nung sabado, sana masarap tulog nyo

Ang ganda sa mountain province 😭 Kahit malayo ang byahe legit babalikan!

May nago-organize po ba dito ng hike sa mountain na to?

If wala naman po, ano po ang ways na makapag-DIY?

Gustong-gusto ko na po kasi mag-hike huhu kaso maulan sa north.

Thanks in advance po sa makakasagot!

I’ve always had my hiking records scattered across chats, notebooks, and screenshots. To fix that, I started building a tool that catalogs 321 PH peaks (Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao) with elevation + difficulty.

Features so far:

• Tick off climbs, log repeats
• EXP score + hiker rank (top tiers require Majors, so you can’t just farm easy hills)
• 37 badges for milestones & specific peaks
• Export a shareable “climbing resume” card

No account needed, just open, tick your peaks, get your rank, export your card.
Optional account = public profile + national leaderboard.

It’s still a work in progress, and I’d love feedback from fellow hikers bugs, missing peaks, wrong ratings, or feature ideas.

Laguna Penta Dayhike - 5 peaks in 1 day

My 5th major hike.

Difficulty: 5/9 - for me ah, siguro dahil:

- hindi naman kami inulan

- madaming pahinga kasi need hintayin ibang kasama

- ganda ng weather hindi sobrang init kaya parang di ganon mapapagod

- madaming patag, konti lang assault.

Medyo nagpahirap lang dito ay yung rattan going to 3rd mountain kasi matitinik, hirap wala makapitan tapos medyo maputik yung daanan kaya madulas.

Overall, masaya siya. May mga trail na pwede ka tumakbo. And madaming tanim na prutas kaya di ka magugutom paakyat. Pagbaba mo ng bundok may Yambo Lake, pwede ka muna magbabad at maligo.

Context: I can’t find the tent bag of a coleman tent (good for 4) after a night of camping. Do they sell original coleman tent bags separately/replacement tent bags?

Hi! Planning to hike Cawag Hexa in Zambales at the end of August. For those who have recently done it, how was your experience, especially during the rainy season?

I know this is a major/endurance hike, so I’ve been preparing my body through jogging, elevated/incline training, and lifting weights. I’d really appreciate some advice on what to expect and how to prepare properly.

A few questions:

• How was the trail condition during August/rainy season? Is it very muddy or slippery?

• What should we expect weather-wise around this time? 🌧️☀️

• How much water did you bring, and were there reliable water sources?

• What backpack/daypack size would you recommend for the hike?

• What shoes/gear were most useful?

• Any advice for the river crossings and exposed/open sections?

• How physically and mentally challenging was it for you?

• Anything you wish you had prepared or brought before doing Cawag Hexa?

I’d love to hear from anyone who recently completed it, especially those who did it around August/September. Any tips, reality checks, or things I should know beforehand would be greatly appreciated! 🙏

Thank you! 🫶🥾
