Few miles away from Dumaguete City is the town of Valencia where you can find the Pulangbato Falls. Since the falls is an hour away from the city, I decided to hire a tricycle to bring us there, I'm sorry i forgot the amount I paid but you can contact manong Angelico Agustin Jr. and just ask for the price, his number is 09425517723. After an hour ride, you will have to ride a motorbike going up the mountain for about 5-10 minutes to be able to see Pulangbato.
The falls is beautiful and definitely very unique from the other falls I have ever seen. The color of the rocks where the water flows is red. Locals said that it became that way because of the presence of sulfur in the water. You might ask, sulfur? is it safe for bathing? the answer is yes. Locals and tourist are allowed to take a bath and relax in this beautiful creation of God. So if you're in Dumaguete, don't forget to visit this place.
Note: you have to pay for the motorbike going up and also there is an entrance fee (don't worry, its very affordable)
