Getting there

Car

If you're driving from Cebu City, start on Osmeña Blvd and head towards the Cebu South Road. Follow signs pointing toward Talisay City, then merge onto the Cebu South Coastal Road. After approximately 30 minutes, take the exit for Naga City. Continue straight until you reach the junction with the road leading to Baranggay Tagbao. Follow the signs for Manggasang Falls. The falls are located just off Brgy Tagbao Rd (CRXR+RFX), around 15 minutes from the main road. Ensure your vehicle is suitable for some rough terrain as the last stretch may require careful navigation.

Public Transportation

From Cebu City, take a V-Hire (van for hire) from the South Bus Terminal to Naga City. This ride costs around 50-70 PHP and takes about 40 minutes. Once in Naga City, transfer to a local jeepney heading towards Tagbao. The jeepney fare is roughly 15-20 PHP. Inform the driver that you are headed to Manggasang Falls, as they can drop you off at the nearest point. From there, expect a short hike (approximately 20-30 minutes) to reach the falls. Make sure to wear appropriate shoes for the trek.

Motorbike

For a more adventurous route, consider renting a motorbike in Cebu City. Head towards Talisay City, then follow the directions as if you were driving a car. The journey takes about 45 minutes to an hour. Be cautious on the winding roads and ensure you have a helmet and your driver's license. Parking is available near the falls, but it may require a small fee depending on the area.
