Today I decided to do Nature Travel here at Naawan-Manticao Border point. This was truly a Nature travel because of the place full of trees, Nature views and a cool surroundings that makes me more relaxing and felt enjoyable during my travel. It was already 8 in the Morning when I started to do hiking passing on lots of hiking trails, dry streams and a slope areas but the most fascinating of the areas I went was at the dry stream. But before that, there are lots of place I've passing by during my travel and along with my Brother, we headed from the farm going to the dry stream just to visit and explore the areas.

The first and second photo I've shared was all about dried stream located at the Border point between two Municipalities. This stream was already dried many Months has already past because of the extreme heat happens here. Lots of silica rocks shows at the Surface and wild grass almost covered the entire place. This is also the main of the stream but it was also dried because of the intense heat. Now, even if it is already dried, still lots of mountain climber and Nature adventurers always went here just to visit the place.

At the middle of the stream lies this small road trail at the middle. Motorcycle riders always passing by here everytime when they do obstacle rides. This is the only shortcut way going to the Sitio and when this stream here flooded, residents can't also cross in here. Each side of the place contains lots of wild plants and few tall trees that makes us feel more relaxing and cool.

This is one of the most oldest and tallest tree can be seen and found here and we called it Antipolo tree. It grows taller and wider and it also gives the place a shady and cool sites. It grows near at the stream that is why most of the stream sites is covered with shades from this tree. The trunks is very big and wide and according to the Native people I talked too about this tree, it already lives almost a Hundred years old.

Aside of that, there are also oldest fruit trees can be seen and found here just like this Manggo trees that already grown almost Hundred years old also. It grows at the slope parts of the hill and contains lots of branches that also gives the site a cool and relaxing views. Because of it's oldness, the trunk of the tree already grows and sticking with wild vine plants and almost covered with moss.

I also passing by here in this site where lots of young trees planted. This parts of the slope contains lots of native trees and wild grass and at the middle of it is the small road trail going to the Sitio quite far from here. Lots of wils animals like birds can also be seen and heard here.

At the middle of the forest built this unique house. It is made of solid concrete and plainsheets, the ground was properly excavated so the house built will properly balance. This is one of the house found here and it is far from one another and it needs to walk few kilometers away before reaching the other house. Landowner decided to build this structure so they can have a place to rest and spend a day while visiting their farm here.

The deep wheel was also dried up leaving this two big blue drums showed at the surface. This big hole here was filled with lots of water and inside of this big two drums is served as a wheel where they get lots of water for their animals and plants. Even if it is simple made but very unique because of the ideas. It is found near at the road trail and easily seen by those who wants to passing by here.

This border line contains lots of road trails and some of it are leading to the Sitio quite far from the place I visited. Every rainy season, this two road trail is very difficult and unpassable because of the slippery mud all over the place. Each side of the road contains lots of trees and wild grass grows and few wild animals like birds and snakes lives in here.

For me, Nature traveling is a kind of enjoyable moments I have. Those who loves mountain climbing and Nature lovers really fits in here.

Until next post, have a nice day to all of us.

What a peaceful spot to explore, dry stream bed and all! It's interesting how even without water, the place still draws mountain climbers and nature adventurers, that Antipolo tree nearly a hundred years old must be quite a sight to stand next to. 🌳

The old mango tree covered in moss and wild vines sounds beautiful too, nature reclaiming things slowly over the decades. And that improvised well with the two blue drums for watering animals and plants is a clever, simple solution.

Hope the rains come soon to fill that stream back up! Thanks for sharing this hike with your brother, sounds like a really relaxing morning out. 🥾

Greetings from the Marche countryside 🌿
