Officially known as Treasure Mountain Educational Campsite is a large property privately-owned. Located at Tanay, Maysawa Circuit in Cuyambay, 1980, Rizal, one of the 20 barangays.
It is located 57 kilometres (35 mi) east of Manila, although a typical commute between Manila and Tanay will take between one and three hours depending upon traffic conditions. It contains portions of the Sierra Madre Mountains and is bordered by Antipolo City in the north-west, Baras, Morong and Teresa in the west, General Nakar (Quezon Province) in the east, and Pililla, Santa Maria (Laguna province) as well as the lake Laguna de Bay in the south.
The mountain range show-offs God's perfect hands. You don't need to trek since the trails are well-paved dirt. If you're looking for a perfect place to almost reach the heavens and feel alive again, this would be the best place.
It's mid-November in the Philippines. The mountain area emits an amazing, one-of-a-kind fresh healing air. Lakwatserang Payat Travel & Tours in collab with The Chavacano Traveler is thrilled to finally launched its first DIY DAY Tour (Hike) mountain adventure. Surely the place to find your "forever" Either is BFF or Forever, it's as good as treasure.
