Mt. Makiling

Mt. Makiling is a 1,090 m stratovolcano on the Laguna-Batangas border, the Laguna Volcanic Field's highest feature; PHIVOLCS classes it as inactive, though its mud spring and hot springs show volcanism remains. Its forest, restored in the 1910s, is a protected area adopted by the University of the Philippines, and legend holds that the mountain is the reclining figure of its guardian fairy, Maria Makiling. The UPLB trail is marked with numbered stations 1 to 30 up to the summit, Peak 2, with a side trip to the Mudsprings and leeches and snakes on the way, while the Sto. Tomas trails to the south are much harder and have seen injuries and deaths.
