Tinago Falls, Philippine




"Tinago Falls which is also known as ” Hidden Falls ” is basically located in between the City of Iligan and province of Linamon, Lanao Del Norte. Its was one of the beautiful spots in Iligan which is highly visited by a lot foreigners nor even those local people who wish to explore and experience the beautiful paradise of Tinago Falls.

Tinago Falls is one of the main tourist attractions in Iligan, a city known as the City of Majestic Waterfalls. Tinago is a Filipino word meaning “hidden”, the falls being hidden in a deep ravine. Trekking to the falls requires approximately 500 descending steps called the winding staircase. It is said that Tinago Falls is a sanctuary for weary souls seeking to commune with nature. The trip to the falls actually exposes you to a variety of wildlife. Today, the trail is refurbished into a wildlife park hosting different species of wild animals.

The falls is approximately 240-feet high, its very cold waters cascading beautifully into a deep and calm basin-like pool which appears like a blue-colored lagoon. Under the falls is a small cave where people can enter and listen to the rumbling waters. The foot of the falls is a very ideal place for swimming. The place also has man-made swimming pools for children. It is truly a majestic place that resounds an atmosphere of serenity, a perfect escape from the noisy metropolitan.

As of this present time, Tinago Falls is still highly visited by a lot of people who wanted to witness the amazing its beauty and people who wish to have a great time in this place. But if you use to be in this place you have to follow some guidelines to avoid any serious matters ’cause before you reach the said falls you have to take for about 500 staircase. So, those people who do have a heart problems is not encourage to visit this place. I’m sorry for that but its actually one of the specific standards.

So, if you guys are eager enough to visit this place better grab it now! Been to this place already for a couple of times since, Iligan is my native town!… Enjoy everyone!"
