Tinago Falls is one of the most beautiful falls in the country.  “Tinago” is a Filipino term which means hidden.  As the name implies, it is indeed hidden by nature in a deep ravine covered by trees and other wild vegetation.  Trekking to the falls requires approximately 500 descending steps called the winding staircase.

The falls is approximately 420 feet high, its very cold waters cascading beautifully into a deep and calm basin-like pool which appears like a blue-colored lagoon. Under the falls is a small cave where people can enter and listen to the rumbling waters. It is located in Barangay Ditucalan, 13 kilometers from the city center. It is truly a majestic place that resounds an atmosphere of serenity, a perfect escape from the noisy metropolitan.
