Manila Mount Daraitanin koko päivän pienryhmävaellus

This was the best trail I’ve ever hiked and it’s really worth it!! I would not suggest this hike to first timers but if you regularly exercise you can finish this hike! The hike was in the middle of big trees so most of the time you’ll be in the shade. There are challenging trails and there are easy ones! The guides were very helpful and would initiate to take photos. When we reached the peak, wow!! The view was indeed spectacular!! It’s true that it could get muddy and slippery specially when it rained, but always hike at your own risk, and trust your tour guide! We also went to Tinipak river, it was a good swim after the hike. Good thing we booked in Klook because of van service, it’s a bit far from Manila (around 3-4hrs) and you’ll be tired after the hike that you cannot drive or commute back home. 😆I highly recommend this hike! It’s my most favorite one!!

Daraitanin vaellus alkoi kello 3 aamulla, ja olimme kaikki innoissamme päästessämme vaeltamaan korkealle vuorelle. Oppaat vastailivat kysymyksiimme ja vitseihimme, joten vaellus ei ollut tylsä. Olimme Sir Arnelin, Joelin, Arielin ja Jaylanin kanssa. He eivät koskaan jättäneet meitä minnekään, ja heillä oli aina vinkkejä siitä, mihin astua, erityisesti käyttäen tekniikoita GPS (gapang para safe – ryömi turvallisesti) ja UPS (upo para safe – istu turvallisesti), koska satoi ajoittain koko päivän ja se teki reitistä vaikeamman. Siitä huolimatta se oli hien, mustelmien ja haavojen arvoinen. Huippu oli kaunis, vaikka näkyvyys ei ollutkaan selkeä, kun saavuimme huipulle. Paluureitti oli kuitenkin nousua vaikeampi, ja jalkani olivat turvonneet kaiken tämän jälkeen. Se oli hauskaa! Suosittelen tätä retkeä/vaellusta lämpimästi!

The view is worth the hike! I wasn't really expecting much because I'm a beginner and I thought the trail would be easy since it was mentioned that it was for beginners, but it was not easy because of the rain and mud. But the view was so rewarding! Definitely enjoyed it! The driver, coordinator and guides were all so wonderful!

It was an awesome experience. To be honest it wasn't a beginner friendly trail but as it is my mother mountain, it brought me so much joy to reach the summit.

便宜好玩的行程，如果自己一個人參加的話可以認識很多愛爬山的人！三個缺點：1. 晚上11點出發無法睡覺 2. 導遊很認真很棒，但是不會英文，還好我們團有英文好的菲律賓人自願當翻譯，行程多了很多樂趣 3. 車子偏小偏擠，但這麼便宜就有冷氣的包車接送，非常超值

It was a precious experience that I will never forget. It was not an easy hike, but I enjoyed the hike with the participants. The guide was kind and put safety first I'm very satisfied with this program and highly recommend it.

As much as I enjoyed the hike and the hospitality from the fellow local hikers, this is an advanced trail, not for beginners. The trail is slippery, muddy and rocky, it is not flat walking path. Moreover, the weather is hot and humid, even at the mountain peak. It will add more challenge to foreigners who are not used to hiking under such climate condition. There are a lot of rest stops partly due to the difficulties from both the trail and weather

difficulty of the hike: the trail is NOT beginner-friendly at all 😭 it was very rocky and muddy, we slipped every now and then. sa mga pupunta, be prepared lang na maputikan and madulas hahaha guide: very easy to talk to yung organizers and sobrang bait ng guide namin ☺️

It was really hard and I won’t recommend it with beginners but at least it was worth it.

Pidimme kokemuksesta todella paljon. Ei todellakaan aloittelijoille, se oli todella todella vaikeaa, koska satoi, kun patikoimme.
