Kiagong Falls

The Kiagong Falls is a shorter fall with multiple low level streams. Although it is shorter than Kiwiki, it is called Kiagong because of the loud sound that it makes which can be heard from a distance. It also has a picturesque view of the stream coming out of the mouth of the verdant forest that makes great photos.

Malinao II Waterfall

The Malinao II Waterfall is one of the major waterfalls in the Malinao forest. According to their page, it is the product of multiple networks of streams and springs coming from the mountains. The canopies created by trees protects the pool from the heat of the sun and makes for a refreshing swim.

Miglapinig Ridge

The Miglapinig Ridge is the park’s main camping grounds. This spot has a view of grassy mountains that extend into the horizon with rivers snaking at the bottom. During cold days, the spaces in between the mountains are filled with fog. Nothing can be more natural than green and grassy mountains with clear,blue skies in the background.
