About this spot
A favorite two-in-one adventure: hike up Mt. Daraitan for a sweeping view of the winding Agos River and Sierra Madre ridges, then cool off at Tinipak River, famous for its smooth white marble-like boulders and clear blue-green pools. A small cave with a natural pool adds to the fun. It is a steep, rocky climb, so beginners should go with a guide and start early.
