North Cotabato: Asik-Asik Falls


       At long last, I was able to visit Asik asik falls after months of longing to visit it. Asik  asik falls is near our place and it is specifically located at Brgy. Dulao, Alamada, North Cotabato. It was a newly discovered tourist attraction and was only brought to my attention on the month of May. 
     To be able to reach this place, the nearest airport is Awang Airport of Cotabato City which is one hour and forty-five minute flight from Manila. From Cotabato City to this place would take two hours ride. If you want to travel by land, Libungan to Davao would take three to six hours ride and from Libungan to Brgy. Dulao would take thirty minutes to reach this place. In order to reach the vicinity of the falls you must walk these steep slope which is around five hundred cemented steps.


       I know that whatever you will encounter while walking on the steps above, I am sure it is all worth it with the amazing beauty of Asik Asik falls that awaits you. Pictures below are some of the glimpse of it. 




       As always, don't forget to take a lot of pictures of it and have a picture of yourself with Asik Asik falls as you're background as a remembrance. Hope you will enjoy your visit here the same way as I do. Till the next travel!!!

      hi.. thanks for dropping by. The road is passable but the last bridge that you will pass by was not yet repaired and only a single motorcycle could pass on the hanging bridge. If you will bring along a vehicle with you make sure that it could be able to cross the shallow river. Also, it is better to go there when it is not rainy season so that the road would not be muddy and slippery.

    Hello reina, thank you for these info, what i would like to ask is that, from the last bridge where only a single motor can pass, is it possible we can hike from that point to the waterfalls?, can you please make an estimate how many meters would we have to walk?, or such road from there is just too far for a hike.. I would really appreciate if you can give us this info as my group is planning to visit asik-asik come October.. Thank You. BTW great photos u have..

      hi.. regarding your queries, the distance from asik2 falls to the last bridge is too far for hiking. It was the bridge you would pass by before reaching Brgy. Dado, a famous barangay before barangay Dulao. I think a pick up type of vehicle could be able to pass the river. If you want to commute, there is a double tire passenger jeepney from Midsayap or Libungan with a drop point at Bry. Dado and from Brgy. Dado you could hire a habal-habal passenger motorcycle that would bring you to asik2 falls. You could also hire a habal-habal motorcycle from Libungan to Asik2x falls.

Palwan: Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center

     This is Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center or also called Palawan Crocodile and Nature Park. It is located in Palawan City that if you would be staying within the city, it is very much accessible. You would only have to ride  a tricycle, which is the number one means of transportation in Palawan City,  and you would be able to reach this place.      Yup,that's me, facing my fear and holding a baby crocodile. We have this session while waiting for our time to enter the crocodile facility and the park. Well this picture taking session is not free, this is worth twenty pesos and if you want to purchase a copy of the picture it is worth around 150-200 pesos.       This is what welcomes you inside the facility where a short orientation is to be given by the staff. This crocodile is used to be the largest crocodile captured in the Philippines, not anymore because of the captivity of Lolong. These are fresh water crocodiles around four to six year

Land Trip from Manila to Davao

            It was a long trip that took two days and two nights of travel. We had been able to have a land trip from Manila to Davao because my companions bought new cars and preferred to transport the cars by having a land trip than shipped it. From Manila to Davao, we had been able to sail in two ferry boats, pass by to different cities, travelled miles of road and pass the three parts of the Philippines, from Luzon, Visayas and to Mindanao.       Our travel started specifically from Paranaque, Manila and we don't have a map with us but we make sure to look for signboards. From Paranaque, we took the SLEX road to Calamba and to Batangas. We pass by San Jose and San Pablo City. Then, we entered the Quezon Province and pass by the municipalities and cities of Candelaria, Sariaya, Lucena City, Quezon Forest Park, Gumaca, Lopez, and Caluag. The most unforgettable road on this part is the Quezon Forest Park which is a DENR preserved park. Mt. Mayon       We then ent

Barugkot & Lampaki, Kimarayag, Pigcawayan, Cotabato

Isn’t it magnificent? A view from Barugkot Barangay Kimarayag, Pigcawayan, Cotabato. A beautiful scenery from my very own hometown Pigcawayan. We were able to discover this place because my husband’s relatives owned some property here.  A view of the Liguasan Marsh, surrounding towns, Pigcawayan, Libungan and Cotabato City’s lights could be seen during nighttime. Here is Mt. Akir-Akir, a well known hiking destination here, the highest peak in North Cotabato. This is the view from Lampaki, Brgy. Kimarayag, Pigcawayan, Cotabato. Who would have thought there would be a very beautiful sunset here at Barugkot? A little birdwatching activity along the way. Another beautiful sunset with the view of Bungo island. A time-lapse video of the sunset. Most of all, leave nothing but memories. Taking pictures is savoring love intensely, every hundredth of a second - Marc Riboud
