Day Tour: Minalungao National Park
General Tinio (Papaya), Nueva Ecija | Philippines
DECEMBER 3, 2017-We finally managed to schedule a family road trip to Minalungao National Park, after seeing those awesome photos of white limestone cliffs on both sides of an emerald-green river all over social media for about a year now.
Our Minalungao road trip started from Cabanatuan City in Nueva Ecija, where we visited the "House of Pink" and then spent the rest of the day (and night) at the Acropolis Waterpark the previous day.
On our arrival at Minalungao National Park, we got ourselves a local guide (note: it's mandatory) and quickly set out for our first activity: a trek to one of the hilltops to visit a beautiful Glass Cross.
The original plan was for us to hire a raft and enjoy a relaxing lunch floating on the Peñaranda River. However, on the day of our visit the river's current was too strong for the rafts. Apparently, it had been raining upstream in the mountains of Sierra Madre. It is also the reason why the river didn't have its famous emerald green color. So we had lunch in one of the local restaurants instead.
After lunch we were back to the trails to check out a cave and then proceeded to the river. Since we didn't get to hire a raft for lunch due to the river's strong current, we did the next best thing to do in Minalungao under the circumstances, "ride the river." Actually, if you ask us-especially Johan-the strong river current was a blessing in disguise because "riding the river" was just the kind of adventure we were hoping for.
This is a short video presentation of our family road trip to Minalungao National Park in Nueva Ecija. Enjoy watching.
