GINGOOG CITY, NORTHERN MINDANAO

First Destination: Cebu Pacific Flight 387 Shrine at Mt. Lumot

The Briefest Story about Cebu Pacific Flight 387: February 2, 1998 Cebu Pacific Flight387 from NAIA in Manila to Lumbia Airport in CDO crashed on the slope of the mountain killing 104 people on board.After making our tummy full, we started our real adventure and went to our first destination – the Cebu Pacific Flight 387 Shrine at Barangay Libertad which is at the foot of Mt. Lumot, a 25 km uphill from the city public market. Read more Click HERE!

Second Destination: Tiklas Falls

I was even more disappointed knowing I will not be able to enjoy the water of the waterfall because it is no longer safe for swimming.  Even the swimming pool fronting the waterfall is unusable. We asked the person in charge at the main entrance why they abandoned the tourist site and they told us that the reason why they made such action is due to the very alarming cases of tourist who were drowned while swimming at the bottom of the waterfall.

Third Destination: Jinland Swimming Pool

It really felt so good after I have reached some of the most remote places of Gingoog City that day like the Cebu Pacific Flight 387 Shrine at Brgy. Lunotan which is about 25km uphill from the City Public Market and if we hike about 7hrs more we'll be able to reach the peak of Mt. Lumot, next is the "abandoned and most disappointing" Tiklas Falls which is about 9km away from the city proper and lastly the Jinland Cold Spring Resort at Brgy. Libertad which is another 2.5km away from Tiklas Falls! More to go! XD Read more Click HERE!

Timoga Cold Spring Resort - Iligan City

It’s as a small resort compared to Maze Park but they have their “own uniqueness”  from the other resort like for example the water in their pools is from the spring so that means that the water is spring cold and of course flowing. Nothing beats Iligan City in terms of abundance of fresh waters. Imagine, the city itself has about 23 waterfalls, the reason why Iligan City is dubbed as “The City of Majestic Waterfalls”.
