Hagimit Falls is in Bgy. Kawag, Penaplata, Samal, Mindanao Philippines. Dont be frightened by the Mindanao bit it is actually considered perhaps the safest place in the Philippines with the lowest crime rate.
First you have to get to Davao. Then to the Island Garden City of Samal. The falls are about 2 kms from Penaplata, and is accessible by car/jeep. After Penaplata proper, upon reaching the top of the long uphill road, turn left at the dirt road. 350m away.
Then it is gentle hike through some streams and stuff.
The area is well-covered by the canopy of full-grown trees and give some relief from the searing heat of the sun. Bring packed foods. There are some campsites available.
The local community collects P5/head for the park's upkeep.
