HOW TO GET TO TREASURE MOUNTAIN?



The first thing to do to make your travel easy is to search Treasure Mountain on google maps for accurate directions going there.

It’s an hour or two away from Manila to witness the Sea of Clouds. But remember that the sea of clouds is not visible every day. There are days without them just like when we visited this place, we were not so lucky to see this beautiful scenery.


Here a helpful guide on traveling to Treasure Mountain in Tanay.
VIA PRIVATE AND PUBLIC TRANSPORT.

VIA PRIVATE TRANSPORT.
There are two possible routes to take.
1.  VIA MARCOS HIGHWAY, you’ll pass over Masinag, Cogeo, Boso-boso Resort, Foremost Farms, Palo Alto, and Garden Cottages. The way to Treasure Mountain will be on the left side of the road, you’ll see a waiting shed. It’s the same jump-off as the Maysawa Circuit (Mt. Sapari and Mt. Binutasan) From the waiting shed, you’re just 1.5 kilometers away from Treasure Mountain, go straight and you will turn right as you see our signage.

2.    VIA SAMPALOC IN TANAY. You’ll take Sampaloc road and will pass by the street to Daranak Falls. Go straight until you arrive at a junction and then, turn left. Following the scenic road, it will be a 45-minute to 1-hour drive. You’ll pass by Sierra Madre Resort on your right, Ten Cents to Heaven on your left, then Pico de Pino on your right. As you pass over Pico de Pino, you’re already near so drive a little further. Treasure Mountain will be on your right side. Turn right as you see a waiting shed or the jump-off of Maysawa Circuit (Mt. Sapari and Mt. Binutasan) Similarly, go straight and you’ll turn right as you see our signage.

NOTE: Going to Treasure Mountain, there are parts of the road where you’ll pass through mud and rocks especially during rainy seasons. If your car can’t make it until the parking area, you can just park your car in the vicinity and just have a 15-minute walk to Treasure Mountain. Don’t worry they are on the process of constructing the road to make it easy for the travelers to get there.
