About this spot

Bohol's icon and one of the most famous landscapes in the Philippines: more than 1,200 near-perfect cone-shaped hills rolling to the horizon. In the dry season the grass turns brown, which is where the 'chocolate' name comes from; in the rainy season they're bright green. Climb the roughly 200 steps to the view deck at the Chocolate Hills Complex in Carmen for the classic panorama. Usually the centerpiece of a Bohol countryside tour.
