The Shared Discovery Trail of Masungi Georeserve allows guests to go through the conservation area, and come up close with the karst terrain. This experience is ideal for individuals, couples, or small groups less than seven guests. A park ranger will be guiding guests through the trek providing a deeper understanding of the area. The trek lasts for 3-4 hours in total, but may be shortened or lengthened depending on the guest’s preference and capacity.
Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays
(Depending on Availability of Partner Organization)
Experience an enchanting return to Philippine traditions and the majestic night skies at Masungi Georeserve. Embark on a short guided 45-minute hike and learn about nighttime wonders. This will end on a rock peak where freshly made hot chocolate and traditional meriendas of bibingka or puto-bumbong await. As you enjoy your warm cup under the night sky, listen to stargazing experts as they narrate the stories of the cosmos, the stars above us, and humanity’s place within it. The four-hour experience closes with a lantern-lit dinner in the midst of the forest nestled in a valley. Food choices are traditional banana-wrapped meals patiently prepared by Masungi's community partners.

The Sunrise Trail is a guided morning ascent that brings you to one of the highest and most scenic points of the georeserve in under an hour. Winding through over 600 carved stone steps, the trail moves through ancient limestone formations, secondary forests, and opens up to a 360-degree view of the karst landscape—just in time for the break of day. Though shorter in duration, this trail is no less profound. Once walked as a pilgrimage, it still carries the spirit of intention and reflection. Each step offers the chance to reconnect with the land, the self, and something greater. It’s a trail that mirrors the quiet unfolding of the morning—from darkness to light, stillness to clarity. The Sunrise Trail is an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and begin the day in communion with nature—without the 3–4 hour hike required by our other routes. At the summit, guests are welcomed by sweeping views, drifting clouds, the golden glow of the sun rising over the Sierra Madre — and perhaps nocturnal creatures still lingering in the shadows, just before the day fully claims the forest. The experience culminates in a traditional Filipino breakfast shared in stillness: Arroz Caldo or Ube Champorado, paired with hot cocoa or herbed tea—a simple offering to the morning, and to yourself.
