Did you know that Albay has its very own version of Bohol’s famous Chocolate Hills? These little-known hills straddle an area stretching from the third district to the second district of Albay. The hills are not as conical and symmetrical as the ones in Bohol, but they are remarkably similar in appearance and are probably of the same limestone composition. Indeed, these hills are a natural attraction and potential tourist destination in Albay just waiting to be discovered and explored.
Climbing up to the summit of the Philippines’s most active volcano is truly an experience of a lifetime.

It normally takes two days and one night to reach the summit and it is essential that one have a competent and knowledgeable local guide.
