How to get there:

By Air

If you're not from Davao City, You have to get a flight to Davao City. There are several airlines servicing the route such as Philippine Airlines (PAL) or Cebu Pac (Cebu Pacific), cheapest flight is through Cebu Pacific or if the other airlines offer their promo fare. Travel time is 1 hour and 45 minutes.

Aside from Davao airport, there are other airports in Mindanao such as General Santos, Cotabato City, Surigao City, Cagayan De Oro and Butuan. For me the shortest way to travel is to have the Davao flight also it is the only international airport in Mindanao.

After arriving at Davao airport take a cab or a bus going to Ecoland Bus Terminal.

By Land

After arriving at Ecoland Terminal take the bus either via Mati or Compostela Valley, there are several bus lines service route such as Mallen Express, Lyra Express, and Bachelor Express.

Davao via Mati traveling time is usually 10-12 hrs. using the Bachelor Bus the fare is Php. 500.00 (325 kilometers).

Davao via Compostela Valley (ComVal) using the Mallen bus it is usually 6-7 hrs. The ComVal route has a shorter travelling time, but during rainy season it's not advisable to use this route because of landslides.

Along the journey what will excites you the most is this little waterfall beside the road.
