Wawa Dam

How to go

There are three ways to go there from Quezon City by means of public jeepney.First is the route of Philcoa-Montalban jeepney, just look for the jeep going to Montalban in front of Jollibee. Fare is 26 pesos as of May 2006. As you arrive in Montalban, look and ride a jeep going to Wawa and don't forget to pay 7.50 pesos as your fare.Second route is by means of Montalban-Cubao jeepney near or in front of Sogo Hotel. As you arrive in Montalban, look and ride a jeep going to Wawa .The last route is a jeep in Litex-Montalban. Fare is less than 17 pesos and just tell the driver to unload you in loading area going to Wawa. From here look and ride a jeep going to wawa.

From Wawa you can either go to straight to the dam, Its about a 10 minute walk from the drop-off point to the dam. You can also ask assistance from the barangay who are pretty much willing to assist and guide you to the trip ( I just don't know if there is money involved).

CORREGIDOR ISLAND

Corregidor island is just a few kilometers from Manila (48 Kilometers to be exact), Its is the first line of defense of Manila during the war. This island fortress stands as a memorial for the courage, valor, and heroism of its Filipino and American defenders who bravely held their ground against the overwhelming number of invading Japanese forces during World War II. Also known as "the Rock," it was a key bastion of the Allies during the war. Today Corregidor serves as one of the tourist spot of this country. Our trip to corregidor is quite exciting, due to the fact that it was our first time to go there. Plus the fact that it is both historical and a beautiful place. Made us more eager to go to the place where history is written everywhere, a place once become a graveyard for hundreds of soldiers fighting for our freedom.

When and How to Go

You can go to Corregidor Island all year round, just make sure it is not storming cause you have to ride a boat to go there. But if you are not familiar with the place it is better to avail of the Corregidor Day tour packages at CCP. The package is inclusive of Lunch, Boat Fare and the Tranvia ride with tour guide. But you have to pay extra if you want to watch the Malinta Tunnel Lights and Sounds Show. It is also allowed to bring food to the trip and I have to say that the food there is expensive, imagine a can of soda for 90 pesos. So if you can bring food might as well do so.

Malibiclibic Falls

Malibiclibic falls is not a popular hiking destination. Some people can’t even believe that there is a waterfall in Cavite. As what I have researched there is two waterfalls in Cavite one is the Balite Falls and the Malibiclibic. Malibiclibic falls has a large catch basin and is ideal for swimming, for those who know how to swim. A local there tell us that it is 10 to 15 feet deep. The water sometimes tends to get musky when it rain. It also has a nice place to camp and it can accommodate 5 to 7 tents, depends on the sizes of the tents.
You can also witness monkeys playing on top of the trees if you are lucky.

How to Go and When

Malibiclibic falls is located at Brgy. Lumipa, Aguinalo, Cavite. You can go there by the Baclaran – Alfonso bus or the Baclaran - Naic bus.

From Baclaran take the bus going to Alfonso Cavite, It will pass by Bacoor, Imus, Dasma, Silang, Tagaytay etc.. then the last stop will be Alfonso.
From Alfonso you will then ride a jeep going to Aguinaldo. From Aguinaldo you will then ride a tricycle going to Brgy. Lumipa. From there you can ask for directions from the locals. It is better to ask at the brgy officials. From the brgy hall it is a 20 minute walk more or less to the campsite.

You can also take the bus or FX going to Naic, Cavite. From Naic you can then catch a jeep going to Aguinaldo Bayan. It will pass by brgy Lumipa. And if you know your directions you can go down near the trail to the campsite.

It is better to go during summer, the water tends to get musky during the rainy season and it makes the trail muddy and the rocks slippery.


(Aguinaldo is not the Aguinaldo Highway, it is a town)
