POSTCARDS OF THE TWIN LAKES BALINSASAYAO in Sibulan, Negros Oriental

Welcome to the famous TWIN LAKES BALINSASAYAO. This is located in the town of Sibulan, Negros Oriental. It usually takes less than an hour from Dumaguete City. It is a perfect getaway if you're looking for some real fun and adventure. Just the perfect escape from the city itself.

My PHOTO DIARY OF THE FIRST LAKE

GOING TO THE SECOND LAKE 

THE SECOND LAKE

HOW TO GO THERE?   

1. Take a tricycle. Tell the driver that your destination is the terminal of the jeep / bus going to SAN JOSE.

2. From there, tell the driver that you need to drop off the junction going to Lake Balinsasayao. Your key point is that this area is after you pass by the Sibulan proper and just remind the driver once again.

3. After you get off, it will be an uphill climb.

4. No need to worry because there are many motorcycles waiting 

( habal-habal in our dialect) for hire. Hire a motorcycle going up to the twin lakes. 

5. Make some arrangement with the driver. In our case, we paid P 300 / person including waiting time for 3 hours and two-way route already.

**Prices may vary according to how you negotiate with the driver.

REMINDERS 
1. Bring extra t-shirt and towel.
2. Bring  a bottled water / water jug and some snacks so you have something to eat and drink there.
3. Don't wear slippers if you plan to go to the second lake.  The way going there is really a rugged terrain literally.
4. Have some insect repellent lotion with you. 

I guess that's pretty much it. It was fun  writing about this. Once again, TWIN LAKES BALINSASAYAO, you are beautiful and captivating. So guys, if you are in Dumaguete, plan a side trip and go to this place. It's a good location to experience ZEN and be ONE with nature.
