MT. NATIB - SUMMIT

Our first.

Definitely not our last...

Wonderful sights and scenic views of Central Luzon.

Thick forest, woodlands and grasslands.

Our guide is also our co-worker kuya Isagani which is also a local here in Brgy. Tala.

Registration is a must: 20 Pesos

and tour guide fee is 100 Pesos per head.

Even under the heat of the sun we manage to take some selfies... Zipline please....

After an our, we've reached the view deck.

Amongst the grassland and thick forest, horses are almost everywhere. Don't go near them without your guides assistance they might give you a kick.

Prepare your sleeves, this is going to be itchy. Don't let them grasses touch you.

These field of grassland will welcome you before the final ascend to the summit.

We didn't expect this... uggggghhh

(Gloves are a must)

Good thing DENR put these ropes to guide hikers thru the climb.

Be very extra careful. KAPIT lang friend.

And we finally made it after 5 Hrs hahaha (not bad for a newbie)
