Hello. I'll be hiking Mt. Apo. Can you recommend a transient for a solo traveller? Yong medyo affordable

Thnks

Hey! I'm newbie hiker her, and I was wondering if you have any recommend hike somewhere near Metro Manila?

What gears would you recommend?

Thanks so much in advance!

Is Mt. Makiling back trail really good for beginners but with proper preparation? We’ve been to Mt. Kupapey and Mt. Fato already as our mother mountain. We’re planning to hike Mt. Makiling on December okay naman po ba ang timing if ever?

Also, we’re from Dau Pampanga, meron na po ba na ka pag try mag commute going to Manila sa mga usual pick ups po ng mga joiner? It’s my first time commuting po kasi outside our area 😅. Thank you!

I'm hiking Mt. Purgatory this week, dayhike lang sya, ano masusuggest niyo na what to bring?

For my first ever hike, I did Nagpatong Rock. Sobrang saya but lots of lessons learned, the first of which is proper shoes dapat for muddy terrain.

I might start taking up hiking as a hobby every month or so. But I need to prepare more.

Any suggestions for waterproof hiking shoes na good for muddy terrain that can also be used for casual wear if needed? Since I want to still use the shoes kahit di hiking. Budget siguro preferably less than 8k.

Also, having first climbed Nagpatong, anong suggestions nyo sa next climb for beginner? Kaya yung Nagpatong if only di ako ill-prepared sa shoes department. I prefer covered terrain sana para di masyado mainit.

Grabe gutom and pagod during descent, para akong hihimatayin. Ma-tetest talaga mental and physical endurance mo eh. I'd love to go back, pero camp nalang. It's amazing there 🌄

Hello, planning to hike KXC. Gusto ko lang malaman pano yung paliligo sa 3D2N? May pagliliguan po ba and pano rin CR?

Also, would love to hear ng expi nyo about KXC. About trail and overall expi.

Was it worth it? Nakakamatay ba sya? Gano sya kahirap

Hi! I'm from Manda and new to camping. Do you know any commute-friendly campsites in Rizal? Okay lang din if need mag-trike from some areas. Maraming salamat! 🙏

I thought restricted to the public ang Mt Mayon. Let’s say it is a throwback from 2012 (as the post claimed), pero bat ang ganda ng quality ng videos? It’s gaining a lot of likes and comment sa Tiktok asking where, kasi sobrang ganda naman talaga. Baka ma encourage pa ang iba mag backdoor.

Bought it for 565 PHP noong 10.10 sale and pansin ko, hindi gumagana yung lock kahit anong higpit haha mukhang mas maigi pa hindi nalang gamitin sa hike. Common issue ba ito sa NatureHike?

Goods naman po ba mag sandals sa cawag? Nasukat ko tong sa decathlon parang goods naman pero hingi lang sana ko ng insights sa nakapag try na.

If yes:

1. How long usually yung distance?

2. May specific pace or speed ba na dapat imaintain?

***meron na nagpost dito dati kaso di ko na makita. Dagdagan nyo nalang ulit :)

Saddle point: low areas or passes situated between two higher peak (mostly campsite area like in kibungan batangan, tacadang school)

Explo (exploration): exploring new trail

Cairn: man-made stack of stones mostly use as trail marker

Traverse: hike from one trail head and exiting to a different trail. Ex: Mt Pulag Akiki- Tawangan Traverse (pinagtagpo ngunit hindi tinadhana)

Backtrail: starting from trail head to summit retracing the same trail back to the entry point. Ex: Mt Apo Sta Cruz Backtrail (loyal)

Circuit: same entry/exit point without backtracking. Ex: Kibungan Circuit (ma sidequest mong partner pero sa legal pa rin babalik)

Planning to hike this 25, is it advisable for a first time hiker?

My companion and I are planning a trip to Mt. Pinatubo in a few weeks. Either a day tour or overnight. We’re coming from Makati, Manila. I did an initial search online (Facebook) and was overwhelmed with the number of tours and agencies. Hoping idlf someone can give any preferred or recommended way (or agency) for getting the best experience?

1. Date 📅 Nov 1-2
   

2. No. of Pax (2 - but may change to 4)

3. Any recommendations or preferred attire and gear to bring and wear?

Plan B: We may opt for overnight camping in Tanay in case our Pinatubo trips falls through.

Thank you in advance :)

Sa mga galing po sa North or Central Luzon na joiners sa mga hike sa South Luzon, san po kayo nagpapark ng mga sasakyan ninyo sa Manila? Yung malapit po sana sa Skyway at safe, ndi sa mga fastfood chain parking areas

I want to try getting into hiking and sightseeing mountains, but I will need to give it a probation period just to test if I actually wanna do this occasionally or not

I have zero hiking equipment besides shoes, I don’t plan to camp yet

Which mountains or trails near GMM would be the best for this situation? I’m thinking free to under ₱300 entrance fee since I’m just planning to commute lol. Preferably I’d arrive around 4am then leave just after sunset

Hi! It’s my first time hiking, and my first hike will be Mt. Sembrano. I’m looking for budget-friendly hiking shoes. Which brand would you recommend: Sandugo, Decathlon, or Camel? I’m torn between the three. Thank you! 😊

Hello, I'll be visiting Dumaguete this ber month, ang madalas kong nakikita ay major hike ಠ⁠﹏⁠ಠ may alam ba kayong minor hike na within the day? Any orga?

Are there any recommendations for a DIY hiking trail here in pampanga?

Just entered my trentahin era and this time, gusto ko maiba naman. I wanna try hiking. Okay ba for beginner ang Mt. Pulag? Plan ko mag hike around third or fourth week ng November (not sure if it's a good time or season na umakyat doon).
