MT. BATULAO TRAVERSE | NEW TO OLD TRAIL | DAY HIKE | FULL EXPERIENCE | FEBRUARY 24, 2024

Mt. Batulao
There are a few unverified stories about how the mountain got its name. One attributes it to a phenomenon that occurs annually in the last week of December, “when the sun nestles right in between the two peaks creating a scene described by natives as ilaw sa dalawang bato or bato sa ilaw (illuminated rocks)."
Another says that the mountain’s name is derived from the Tagalog words “batong dilaw” (yellow stone), supposedly because the rays of the early morning sun turns the mountainside into gold or yellow on a clear day.
