Hilltops, a breath of fresh air and breezy lake sides, that's what nature lovers go for as their weekend getaway, away from the busy streets of the cities and that's exactly what Mt. Mabilog is all about.
In a nature oriented town in the province of Laguna, Mt. Mabilog lies beside the Lake of Yambo, in Brgy. Sulsuguin, in the town of Nagcarlan. It's a relatively easy hike for beginners. You'll have a nice and close view of Yambo Lake before you head to the trail jump off. You can also arrange a lunch-on-a-raft with the locals near the lake for a meal in the middle of the lake experience.
The trail to the summit of Mt. Mabilog is easy with a short assault to the reach the top. Crossing farmlands most of the duration of the hike so be careful of the occasional forks in the trails and be courteous to the locals.
The summit is a wide clear grassland with just a few trees for resting under shade. A 360 degree panoramic view overlooking the twin lakes Yambo and Pandin, as well as Palakpakin and Mohicap. The mountains visible around the summit are Mt. Banahaw, Mt. Cristobal, Mt. Atimla, Mt. Nagcarlan(Kalisungan), and Mt. Malauban(just beside lake Yambo).
