Guide to Caramoan: Mt. Caglago, Tabgon


Visiting something sacred for people with good faith gives one a feeling of fulfillment. This sacred place in Caramoan is also the perfect place to get a view of what Caramoan can offer from the highest mountain, Mt. Caglago. A breathtaking view that will simply make you feel that you want to stay longer is waiting for you on top.

Here's the catch, prepare your bottled water because climbing around 500 plus (i forgot the exact number) steps to reach the image of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary. Tour guides will be along with you to assist you as they share lots of stories about the place, Caramoan and everything that you can see around. Drink water when needed, walk slowly but surely, take a few seconds of rest after every batch of stairs. Be amazed how the 27 foot image of the Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary got up there.

From the town proper it's much more advisable to take the banca to reach Tabgon where Mt. Caglago is located, rather than doing it on a road trip.

Again, the drop off point is from Bical for you to go to Tabgon.



We saw a big fish floating sidewish, probably injured.

Walk your way to the start of the staircase adventure, the distance from the daungan is around 100 to 150m. This will serve as your warm up. 



Just a few reminders
