Kabigan Falls

Kabigan Falls, Natural waterfall in Pagudpud, Philippines.

Description

Kabigan Falls is a waterfall in Barangay Balaoi that plunges from a higher elevation into a natural basin carved from rock. The water descends over stone layers and is surrounded by dense forest and boulders that create an enclosed valley.

History

The name comes from the Tagalog word 'kaibigan', meaning friend, and reflects the local belief in a connection between the waterfall and river. The community chose this name based on this traditional understanding.

Culture

Local vendors at the entrance offer fresh coconut juice, a traditional refreshment that represents Filipino hospitality and agricultural practices.

Practical

The path to reach this site follows a forest trail that takes about 2 kilometers on foot and requires sturdy footwear. Visitors should arrive early to experience the best water flow and most peaceful swimming conditions.

Did you know?

The natural basin has a concave shape that invites visitors into particularly cold, soothing waters. Birds and small creatures have adapted to the location and their calls fill the air surrounding the water.
