It was in February when we first went to Mambukal Resort. From Circle Inn (the hotel where we stayed), we took a jeep and went off at Libertad (7 pesos). And then, we took a non-air-conditioned bus going to Mambukal which costs 35 pesos/pax (one way). Just tell the conductor that you’ll get off at Mambukal. And yes, the bus stops in front of Mambukal Resort.

The travel time from Bacolod to Mambukal is around 1.5 hours. It’s not that long. On the way to Mambukal, you’ll enjoy the scenery of the vast fields of sugar cane and of Mount Canlaon. :)

Upon arriving Mambukal Resort, just go inside, and pay an entrance fee of 30 pesos for adults and 10 pesos for kids.

When we finally got inside the resort, the guides were already approaching us and asked us if we want to go and see the waterfalls. In Mambukal Resort, there are seven waterfalls. However, we weren’t able to see all of them. After preparing ourself for the hike that we won’t forget, we finally got two guides since we belong in a group of five.

Going to the first waterfall was quite easy. After that, it became quite hard for the group especially that not all of us are physically fit. :D I think that it was harder for me because I have to keep my balance, thus, I was very careful when taking  each step.

It’s good that the guide helped me in bringing my tripod. If not, I would probably need more time to finish the 2nd, 3rd, and 6th waterfalls.

We stayed longer at the 6th waterfalls where Sha, Kitel, Pichy and Carla took a dip in the pool there. As for me, I just savored the cool breeze and continued taking photos.

After that, the difficult hikes became all worth it. :) We didn’t proceed anymore to the 7th waterfall because it started to drizzle so we decided to go back. After the hike, we paid the guides 200 pesos each.

Swimming at the Mambukal Sulfur Pool is a must after the long trek. It will surely soothe your muscles. :) Then, we had our late lunch before going back to Bacolod City. There are food stalls inside the resort. Food is not that expensive and of course, they serve the famous Bacolod Chicken Inasal. Aside from the waterfalls, you can also enjoy other resort amenities at a very low cost. Half a day is enough to enjoy Mambukal Resort. For us, we only targeted to go to the waterfalls and have ourselves be relaxed at the Sulfur Pool.

There’s a bus outside Mambukal Resort that you can take if you’ll go back to Bacolod City. :)
