"Was visiting UPLB and they helped arrange a crew to take me to the summit of Peak 2. Right after a tropical storm, the trail was wet, muddy, and slick. The summit was above the clouds, soviewslimited. Overall, a good climb. Not for her though." — jak5280 • Oct 21, 2025

"It was My First Climb. It was Exhausting But fun. I solo Climbed it because I was Left by the group and the guides, So I used Google map and ask around all the way to the peak 12 (Mt. Batulao's Highest Peak)." — mark-josephalmonia • Mar 8, 2025

"It was a rainy hike. The normally dry, dusty trail transformed into a mud-slicked obstacle course, especially on the steeper sections. The fog dissipated for a few minutes, allowing us to appreciate the view before it got thick again. The infamous Batulao heat was absent due to the rain, and I think this was a good thing because our guide mentioned that someone died from a heatstroke at the summit the day before our hike so I think it was okay that it was raining." — kaloyaganinta • Feb 25, 2024

"Difficulty: 5/9 Elevation: 983 MASL Moving time: 2:59:16 Distance: 9.21 Unfortunately the group that I joined only went as far as south peak but overall the hike was good enough. There were a number of instances in which there were cliffs and uncertain paths but generally it can be completed by a beginner. Good hike and next time will definitely go to the north peak." — Chok • Jun 24, 2023
