Whenever we feel the need to take a break from city life, heading to the beach is always top of mind. But next time, why not discover a not-so-popular hideaway that can give you a new kind of relaxation?
Tabuk, the capital of Kalinga, is a sanctuary that can be found in between the Cordillera Mountains. It’s an unexpected place that’s both calming and thrilling at the same time.
Clear your mind and take a trip to Guilom Canyon Falls, or learn about the province’s rich culture by visiting Naneng Village—a heritage site where traditional hardwood architecture has been preserved. You can even meet and greet Abbak, their popular monkey that has adopted stray cats and dogs!
But for a more extreme experience, get your adrenaline rushing and brave the rapids of Chico River by going white water rafting. Don’t worry; a guide will help you conquer your white water rafting adventure!
How to get there:
Take a Victory Liner bus from Kamias or Earnshaw Sampaloc terminal to Tabuk.
Another option is to take a bus to Tuguegarao from Pasay, Kamias, or Earnshaw Sampaloc and take a jeepney to Tabuk.
