Panas Ingan Waterfalls

Panas Ingan Waterfalls

A friend of ours told us of a waterfall about a 1/2 mile north of Hinunangan in the barangay Ingan.  After driving up a one lane mountain road (almost a 4 wheel drive road) we were greeted by the sounds of a waterfall.  Along with the waterfalls is a lily pad pond and three sheds for picnicking








The river above the falls is rocky, with a pool below the falls that is deep enough to swim in. Below the pool is more rocky river.

 
 


The falls themselves are not big, but the water goes through them fast. There is a spot that is like a waterslide. JJ had a good time going through the slide, but had to have a person there to help him. The current is strong and the water is over 6' deep. There are 2 big submerged rocks in the channel that would hurt if you slammed into them.




Once you get out of the current you can swim in the pool. The water is clear and cool.




We enjoyed a picnic lunch and JJ had a great time.





There is a caretaker that lives nearby, he will come down and collect a user fee. Fifty pesos (about $1) per vehicle or group, plus another 150 pesos (about $3) for the use of a shed.

It was a very enjoyable outing and we did not have to travel very far to see it.

Thank you for following the blog.
