Introducing an adventure where you can immerse in the beauty of Philippine pristine national park, challenge your mind and body through a lush woodlands trail and sharp ridges and rewards yourself with the white beaches of Mariveles

Highlights:
A Scenic and mesmerizing 270-degree view of Bataan, including Corregidor Island and Manila Bay, all the way to Cavite, followed by exploration of the five finger coves, beach bumming and cliff diving.


Overview

Philippine, a land of well-known natural beauty and rich biodiversity. Its beaches, mountains, rain forests, islands and diving spots are the most popular tourist destinations, earning it a nickname "The Pearl of The Orient Seas". There are plenty of magical moments to discover in this country, one of which is our ever favorite Mount Pulag. This time however we will venture to one of the less touristy area of Bataan Province, an area which is rich in both history/culture as well as outdoor adventures 
 
Start your journey on the Tarak Ridge, arguably one of the most famous of Mariveles’ peak. True to its name which roughly translated to hunting knife ridges, Tarak Ridge trails consist of lush grassland at first progressing to rocky terrain, steep cliffs, and jagged rocks. The hike is moderate to hard in difficulty but it offers a dramatic and mesmerizing landscape and view, attracting more and more mountaineers every year.

Difficulty grade 3.5 (​https://www.liveopenly.net/adventures-unlimiteds-trail-grading.html)
The relaxing part...

Next to rewards yourself after the hard adventure, we will be beach bumming at MARIVELES FIVE FINGERS COVE. This Cove is one of the new sensations and attraction in Bataan area. Experience some death-defying stunts, cliff diving, snorkeling and white beaches all around...
 and if you wonder why ‘Five Fingers’? ​
Look at the map and you can basically see a five fingers like peninsulas; namely Pitas or Cochinos, Apatot, Pulong Kawayan, Tinanlakan and Sitio Kutad
*Do note that this hike is not for total beginner and requires some trekking/hiking experience with no acrophobia (extreme fear of height)
