Mt.Guiting-Guiting

Overview

At 6,750 above sea level, Mt. Guiting Guiting is not nearly one of the tallest peaks in the country and yet it is one of the most sought after mountains in the record of Philippine Mountaineering. Dubbed by some local and international natural scientists as the “Galapagos of Asia,” Mt. Guiting Guiting boasts of its thick and old growth vegetation and forests. Sure enough, the mountain doesn’t have the freezing temperatures in Pulag or the height of Apo and yet it has caught the attention and gained the respect of mountaineers.

Mt. Guiting Guiting is notable for its rocky ridges -- three of the few are the “Knife Ridge,” “Kiss the Wall,” and the “Peak of Deception.” The rocky ridges are all steep and jagged and definitely sharp. You should be very careful on where to step and where to hold on the rocks.

Located in one of the three major islands of Romblon province, Sibuyan Island, Mt. Guiting Guiting is considered as one of the most difficult and challenging mountains in the country. Only mountaineers with enough stamina are advised to try the challenge that Mt. Guiting Guiting holds. Are you ready to share life outdoors with us at Mt. Guiting Guiting?
