Tips for Masungi Georeserve Discovery Trail

For those who have registered for our Masungi Exploration Trips, here are a few things to keep in mind. Kasi malapit na ang scheduled tour natin!

-------------------------------- Pre-Tour tip:

#0.1. If you can, medyo mag-jogging na or brisk walk before your scheduled tour. If not, siguraduhing keribels mo na next day masakit ang kasukasuan mo. Anyway, mapapaniwala naman ang boss mo na nagkasakit ka, kaya di sya maghihinalang pinag-planuhan mo ang SL na ginamit mo.

#0.2. Charge your cameras, gopro, and cellphones! Bring extra battery din and maybe memory card. Photo Ops mode tayong lahat!

#0.3. WHAT TO WEAR: Hiking Shoes or any closed shoes that has thick soles, and is not slippery. Comfortable shirt/top, a dryfit shirt would be ideal since you will sweat in this hike. Shorts/Leggings. If you have gloves (the ones used for gym or biking), bring them. We'll be climbing ropes and di maiwasan kumapit sa rocks na matatalas. Optional naman, pero iwas sugat na rin sa pagkapit sa bato. Maganda sa photos ang colorful outfit. Caution in wearing yellow shirt and helme - unless you plan on channeling your inner minion. :)

-------------------------------- Eco-Trail Tips:

#1. Masungi Management is strict with their start time. Di lang tayo ang naka-book sa araw na yun. Each group starts on time para di siksikan sa bawat attraction. That said, we need to leave on time. Wag ‪#‎pabebe‬, kundi iiwan ka talaga ng van.

#2. Have breakfast. Kung di ka nakapag-almusal sa bahay before the meetup, kumain ka na lang din sa meeting place, or at least mag-take out. Buti na may laman ang sikmura kaysa himatayin ka sa gutom at init ng araw.

#3. You may leave your bulky bags with the van, but bring your valuables. We will be climbing ropes and rocks, so it's better not to bring big bags. There are passages that are so narrow, kaya pa-seksihan na lang tayo.

#4. Bawal magdala ng food sa Masungi, pero if you feel that you would need some light snacks (i.e. biscuits, powerbar), it's ok, but make sure not to throw any trash at the eco-trail. Anyway, they will serve sandwiches and juice naman in the middle of the trek kaya di naman tayo sobrang gutom and maka-rest din in the middle of the hike.

#5. May provided din sila na 500ml bottled water, but if you feel na kukulangin yun sa inyo, magdala na rin kayo ng extra water.

#6. Wear Sunscreen. Actually may sunblock din silang available sa napagandang CR sa holding area ng Masungi. Pwedeng dun ka na rin maglagay at sulitin ang binayad. ;)

#7. The hike should be 3-4 hours ideally, pero inabot kami ng mga 5 hours last time kasi todo picture-taking kami, and medyo mabagal din talaga mag-hike. ‪#‎CriticallyFit‬.

#8. Depending on how long your batch would take to complete the trail, pwede pang mag-side trip, or at least late lunch before you go back to Cubao. basta 4pm alis na ng Rizal considering the traffic, and para makauwi din agad yung mga may work pa kinabukasan.

#9. Since walang signal sa Masungi, di mo kailangan mag-alala na ma-ta-tag ka agad sa mga iuupload na photos. Sa mga new friends na mami-meet, alalahanin ang mga bagong kaibigan. Wag muna sila i-tag agad sa i-uupload mong pics. Kahit sa weekend na lang. ‪#‎AlamNa‬

-------------------------------- Post Tour Tip: #10. May mga busyng tao din na late talaga mag-upload ng pics. Give them time. Kailangan mabait tayo sa kanila, baka i-delete lang nila yung picture at di tayo bigyan ng kopya.
