What to expect
Viewing Deck of Chocolate Hills. The Chocolate Hills are a geological formation in the Bohol province of the Philippines. There are at least 1,260 hills, but there may be as many as 1,776 hills spread over an area of more than 50 square kilometers. They are covered in green grass that turns brown during the dry season, hence the name.
The Philippine tarsier (Carlito syrichta), known locally as mawumag in Cebuano and other Visayan languages, and magô in Waray, is a species of tarsier endemic to the Philippines. It is found in the southeastern part of the archipelago, particularly on the islands of Bohol, Samar and Leyte. It is a member of the approximately 45-million-year-old family Tarsiidae, whose name is derived from its elongated "tarsus" or ankle bone.
Bilar Man-Made Forest A favorite stop-over for tourists going to and from the Chocolate Hills, the Bilar Man-made Forest is a two-kilometer stretch of dense forest made of red and white mahogany trees. The forest is part of a reforestation project more than 50 years ago.
