The Lakwatserangnegra | Ditumabo Mother falls | San Luis, Aurora

So after biking we went back to the villa and prepare before going to the Mother falls, we left the villa around 11:55 am. This time we didn't avail any package tour, we just hailed a tricycle on the main road.  According to the tricycle driver his rate is Php 300 so if we will summarize all our tour expenses we spend Php 900 which is smaller than our last tour in Baler.
We arrived at the mountain's feet around 12:45 pm and start our trek, in just span of two months I've already noticed changes on the trail, they do already have bamboo bridges on the trail but ofcourse that's not for free because you have to pay Php 2 for two way. Took us around 30 minutes to reach the falls. When we arrived we swim and i tested my gopro (hehe). We really enjoyed the cold water because it's only the 3 of us on the falls and when we checked the time it's already 2:00 pm and we've decided to go back to villa. We left the falls around 2:20 pm and was able to get back to the villa by 3:50 pm.

You have to surpass these rocks for you to reach the Mother falls

Before trekking, you need to sign the logbook and give donation for maintenance of the falls (Optional)

When you see this concrete pathway it means that you're almost there! keep on walking.

Tips: 
1. Dark colored stones are very slippery, you have to be extra careful
2. Make Mother falls your last destination, in our case we went to mother falls on the second day right after the Balete tree visit because we really want to spend longer time swimming
3. Bring one bottle of water 
4. Do not litter (Leave nothing but footprints)
