Kawa-Kawa Hill and Natural Park

Get close to nature, enjoy the fresh air, and stunning sunrise and sunset views at the Kawa-Kawa Hill and Natural Park.

Although Bicol top destinations are still hands down, Mayon Volcano and the beautiful islands in Camarines Sur and Calaguas, guests who are looking for a place to just relax and enjoy nature will love the Kawa-Kawa Hill and Natural Park. It is an emerging ecotourism destination in the region. It is located in a hilly spot in Ligao City, hence, guests can enjoy an unobstructed view of the city, its neighbouring towns, and even Mayon Volcano. Plus, guests can also enjoy lovely sunset and sunrise views because of this. At the same time, the park also features larger-than-life statues of the Stations of the Cross, making it a popular destination for devotees during the Lenten Season.
