As an archipelago of 7,107 islands and a tropical country blessed with some of the world’s greatest biodiversity, it is a given that the Philippines can serve as a good playground for both beginner and seasoned hikers alike. In the Batangas region alone, there are plenty of mountains awaiting for you to summit – one of these lovely gems is Mt. Talamitam. Below are the photos from our Mt. Talamitam adventure. Some photos are from Paolo Dala.
The Ascent
The Summit
While at the summit, I also took some ‘birthday’ photos for my special someone.
The Descent
Layong Bato River
At the foot of the mountain, you’ll find Layong Bato. We grabbed our chance to take a dip in the river’s cool waters. After relaxing for a while, we headed to the second mountain of our twin dayhike – Mt. Batulao.

Wow you took such great photos! I wish I had more patience but it was too hot that I didn’t even get great ones when I hiked. Now that I started blogging, need to change that asap!
