Mt. Gulugod Baboy is a minor climb with 2/9 difficulty level and a Trail class of 1 to 2. It features a panoramic view of the bays, rolling hills covered in green and several known mountains in the south. The main jump off point is at Philpan Dive Resort in Barangay Anilao, Mabini, Batangas. It takes an hour or two from that point to its peaks. Be reminded though that the trail has seemingly unending assault. On the first few kilometers, you will be walking on a steep concrete road. Thus, wearing of a pair of trekking shoes or sandals with a very good grip is highly suggested. It’s mostly shady but it gets open as you approach its peaks. There are various trails as well; hence, hire a guide especially if it’s your first time.

The landscapes of Batulao are quite remarkable; and while the view remains largely consistent throughout the trek, the rolling slopes through which the trail passes, as well as the new variety afforded by two major trails – the "Old Trail" and the "New Trail," make Batulao one of the most popular dayhikes or near-Manila hikes.

The thrilling climb up Kilimanjaro is not for the faint of heart, as the journey across the Shira plateau and via the Grand Barranco Canyon to the summit is long and winding. The mountain is made up of three extinct volcanoes, and its highest summit, Uhuru, can be reached in roughly 5 days by any physically fit rookie climber.
