Sulfuric Hot Spring Of Masara

There is no shortage of things to do around let me tell you.  From a cold weather training of yesterday’s activity, I’m bagging myself of making a COLD WEATHER DAYBREAK!

 

Been thinking of a not so cozy experience in the great outdoors, and so I think of hot spring, and I think of Sulfur  and headed off to Mainit Sulfuric Hot Spring in Brgy. Mainit, Masara, Maco, Compostela Valley.

 

Welcome! Welcome!

Traveling for a little over 2 hours isn’t so tiring at all – watching the scenic views in the secluded area of Maco entertains you for a grand scenery to find yourself immersed in the comforting warmth of this  magical hot spring.

 

Its natural view

Sworn by the locals to offer healing benefits, these natural baths have been used to relieve skin rashes and joint pain. According to Google, water from this spring appears either yellow-brownish or milky and its minerals in the water have positive therapeutic effects on skin disease, women's diseases, asthma, neuralgia, arteriosclerosis, rheumatism and shoulder, neck and wrist pains; they also have a detoxifying and mucolytic effect.  Approximately 0.25 percent of your total body weight is sulfur.

Need to be on top of the rock!

This secluded Sulfur Hot Spring could be renamed as ‘hot falls heaven’ with thermal springs popping up from its nature. Sure mid-aged citizens would love to get bathed in an uncommercialized natural hot spring that they would be bragging its heated waters to others.

Astonished in its milky sulfuric floor!

To get there:

1. From Ecoland terminal, ride a bus with route going to Tagum , approximately an hour travel with P65.00 fare for non-air bus.

2. Look/ ask for jeepney terminal with route to Masara. From there, you need to pay P60.00 and sit for more than an hour or 2 to reach Brgy. Mainit (ask the driver/conductor where to drop you off).

3. Trek for 2 to 3 minutes and take a pride for getting into the place!

Post note: Sometimes when too many people are coming, it ruined the natural beauty and serenity of  a place. That's why people often keep it a secret:))
