You have to climb more than 700 steps to reach the top of this mountain. Steps are quite wide and easy to climb. You need to be physically fit to climb all the way to the top. You'll be able to view the beautiful scenery of Coron even before you reach the top. Most people go up in late afternoon... More

Well worth the 30 minute walk up to see the views of Coron and the surrounding bays.. Take a bottle of water with you though.

Awesome views of the island all around you. Even better if you climb right before sunrise! 750+ stairs to climb, so it ain't that bad. If you're younger than 50 and are relatively fit, you have no excuse for not climbing this! :P

Climbing 724 steps is very tiring. But thinking of being persistent to get to the top is you goal to achieve. From the looks of it you will get tired. But after reaching the top, whoa what a relief. Great view awaits from above. Seeing the majestic coron from above

This is the best view deck of Coron Island. It's also an achievement to go up because of the 700 steps. Exercise but great view.

Small, steep, dimly-lit roads zigzagging through the mountain town. Very tourist focused. Plenty travel agencies, restaurants, spas and souvenir shops. One pink convenience store sells basic, over-priced necessities.

we hiked up here soon as we dropped our bags at our hotel. It was then 4.30pm and wanted to get there before sunset. The sun was still fierce as we climbed but luckily the steps have some kind of shelter every hundred steps or so. Make sure you bring lots of water. The view was amazing, if you are... More

It's the 1st in our agenda schedule. The trek started at 4pm, wherein we were advised that it's around 750 steps to reach the tip of the cross. In case you feel tired there are tiny kiosks manned by the local townsfolk for mineral water, sodas & some chips to soothe your thirst & for some quick grab-a-bites, also cemented... More
