"1000/10 even the trail is muddy and rained along the way. I came friday kaya as in walang tao na kasabay umakyat. May nakasalubong lang kami isang group of people na pababa na. Kaya solong solo ko hahaha. Di ko alam kung pang beginner friendly talaga parang hindi eh hahaha or siguro dahil first time ko mag hike at nasaktuhan pa na umulan kaya maputik. All in all sobrang satisfied ako kahit hanggang ngayon masakit pa rin lower body ko habang tinatype ko 'to. Salamat din kay Kuya Edwin na tourguide ko kasi di nya ako pinabayaan. Medyo mabilis lang pacing nya kaya ako pinauna na niya nung after station 11. Masaya akong naakyat ko ang mother mountain ko! Will definitely recommend this sa mga kaibigan ko! " — Cy • Jan 30, 2026

"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
