Things To Do in Batangas, Philippines
1. Explore Taal Volcano
This small but terrible volcano is one of the best places to visit in Batangas. Not only because of its scenic view, but the activities that would bring you closer to the mountain. Here, you can go horseback riding, boating across the volcano island, and of course, climbing to the crater of the lake. Since it’s only 311 feet, it is not difficult to climb. This is also the reason why it’s known as the smallest active volcano in the world.
2. Visit the Caleruega Church
Caleruega church offers you a serene time to ponder about life. The tranquility of the place would bring you so much peace. And its distinctive architecture would lure you to explore more about it. Not only that but the church is surrounded by flowers and trees. The church itself and the whole area is absolutely Instagram-worthy.
3. Hike Mt. Batulao
This inactive volcano in Batangas is actually one of the most popular hiking destinations in the Philippines. If you’re a beginner, this is the ideal mountain to start with your first mountain climb. In just 3 hours, you’ll be able to reach the summit and enjoy the amazing view.
4. Challenge Yourself by Hiking Mt. Maculot
Contrary to Mt. Batulao, the hike in Mt. Maculot is considered one of the most challenging in the country. Expect to encounter steep steps and rocky trails. These difficult steps will require you to exert so much effort to reach the top. Although hiking this mountain is challenging, the view at the top is very rewarding.
