Catanduanes is made for walking. Short trails lead up to grassy headlands with huge ocean views, through farmland and along cliffs where cows graze above the sea.
Binurong Point & Balacay Point, Baras
The island’s most famous hike: a gentle 30 to 45-minute walk from Barangay Guijalo up to Binurong Point, a rolling green headland above the Pacific. Nearby Balacay Point offers a quieter version of the same view.
Hiyop Point & Cagnipa, Pandan
In Pandan, the trail to Hiyop Point ends at a famous heart-shaped cove, and the Cagnipa Rolling Hills spread green pastures to the edge of the cliffs.
Good to know
Start early to beat the heat, hire a local guide where available (it supports the community), and pay the small environmental fees. Trails get slippery after rain, so wear shoes with grip.
