There’s nothing more satisfying for barkadas who are young and free and full of energy than to embark on a trip together to make memories that would last for a lifetime.

        In San Miguel, Leyte, there is one such adventure that would surely bring friends closer to nature, and to each other. This would be a day’s arduous yet fulfilling trip to Sitio Malaihao, Barangay Bahay where the highest waterfalls in this part of the island could be found.

        The hike is two hours passing by muddy roads, vast green fields, hills, and a trek on the river. The visual treat is even made more beautiful and poetic with an encounter with local flora and fauna. Imagine listening to the sound of crickets, the singing of the birds, and seeing dragonflies and other scenes no longer available in busy urban centers.

        The Binte waterfalls is multi-level and because the place is pristine and undeveloped, we could say the trip is not for the faint of heart as it entails climbing up and down slopes. For those who dare a most challenging trail, however, the sight of thick foliage, tall trees, and the sound of the waterfalls is a prize worth all the hassle.
