Kamandag Falls, Makilala Kamandag Falls is least explored falls in Makilala. In fact, there is no shed for overnight stay and stores to buy food. There is no official name for the falls but I named after the sitio where is is situated. It is located in the boundary of Davao and Cotabato Province specifically in Old Bulatukan. There are 9 Falls all in one river that make us exciting to visit and it is also a potable falls/river.
Old Bulatukan is 2 hours away from Davao City or 20 minutes away from Kidapawan City (the nearest city). If you are from Davao City, you can stop in the crossing after the boy scout camp or in crossing in front of MAABC (Mt. Apo Aliance Bible College) and ride a motorcycle(habal-habal) going to sitio Kamandag. The nearest falls is 30-minute hike from the road accessible by the motocycle. It is recommended that you will get a guide in residents there because the falls are hidden and for security reasons. From the first falls you will visit, it will take another 5 hours to view all the 5 falls. You will trek the path of the river, jump to the falls of about 5m to reach to the other falls. The tallest falls is about 20m high and it is not accessible to the bottom.
Cost Budget:
Fare(from Old Bulatukan) = P100 (back and forth)
Guide = depends on you (100 is enough)
. P100 + + food
Trail Summary:
9am = arrival in Old Bulatukan
10am = arrival in the first falls
4pm = time to leave
