It is past
noon. As I decided to go straight to Hagimit Falls after my breathless climb
and ride from Mount Putting Bato. I cannot explain why it took me this long to finally visit
a nearby island's most visited tourist spot, Hagimit Falls. The road going to
the falls has been developed by local government which makes it an easy 5
minutes ride from bus terminal. It is a long walk from the entrance to Hagimit
rock spring but quite relaxing because of nature's ambiance. After reaching the
end of the path walk, I am not that impress because I thought it is all that it
can offer, until I roam around. Though it has been developed and a lot of
cottages, bridges and even spa are built within the vicinity, the running water
and its natural beauty is still preserve. Its waters are bluish and inviting.
The strong current of water falling from the falls is simply saying "come
take a swim". The swimming area does not have even depth that is why
swimmers need to take extra precautions. The lower deck swimming area reaches
up to 10 feet while the upper deck is up to 7 feet deep and its layer is higher
than the one below. But not only that an interesting view and I call it soulful
can be found just behind the cottages where the water is passing to a rain
forest. It is a wide area of rock spring. A must see magical place.
