Pangasinan Attractions: Balungao, Pangasinan

Conveniently located near the TPLEX and McArthur Highway, Balungao is home to Mt. Balungao, an extinct volcano that has become a popular destination for hikers and mountain climbers due to its challenging vertical assault. 

Mt. Balungao is an extinct volcano, 382 metres (1,253 ft) ASL. Its volcanic past is manifested by its physical profile and the presence of hot and cold springs. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) lists Mount Balungao as an inactive volcano.

Depending on a climber's level of experience, it takes about an hour of mostly vertical climbing to reach the summit that offers a 360-degree view of the surrounding towns of Pangasinan. One can get a guide offered by the Balungao Hilltop Adventure management. A guide costs Php.500 for a maximum of 10 persons.  

Balungao opened its doors to adventure travel tourism with the opening of Balungao Hilltop Adventure. Located at the foot of Mount Balungao, the resort was constructed by the municipal government of Balungao and now boasts of the country's longest zip line stretching 1.4 kilometers. 

The Balungao Hilltop Adventure also offers ATV or quad bike adventure, bungee trampoline, biking, mountain climbing, and the refurbished hot and cold spring swimming pools. 

After all the physically demanding, extreme activities, take a dip in their hot and cold pools.
