Waterfalls are one of my favorite place given to us by our mother nature. I am willing to sacrifice long walk to see a very scenic view of waterfalls and in fact, it’s a worthy walk, after all, seeing enchanting falls. But in case, you are not fun of walking too far but want to try taking a bath in waterfalls, then Hagimit Falls is ideal for you. It is convenient and ideal for family trips and bonding with kids.
I’ve been to Hagimit Falls before when it was still undeveloped. And I can say that Mindanao is truly blessed when it comes to nature. You can really feel the jungle adventure while walking going to falls. So exciting!
And Just this year, I came back to Hagimit Falls to join a batch reunion. Guess what? Hagimit Falls has now a stairway half down going to waterfalls. There are lots of cottages too and entrance gate. They also have electricity which is really good for the convenience of the tourist. Good thing they didn’t make a stairway up until you reach the falls. You will no longer feel the natural essence if that would happen.
Hagimit is a cascading fall. You can stay at the bottom portion but if you like you can go further at the very top where you can see many nice spots.
How To Get There
To reach Hagimit falls, simply take a bus from Sta. Ana Wharf in Davao City going to Samal Island. The bus terminal is located on Magsaysay Ave., You can also take a barge or a small boat. When you reached Peñaplata, get a motorcycle and tell them to take you at Hagimit.
