About Bunga Falls
Hidden in the town of Nagcarlan, Laguna, Bunga Falls is a twin waterfall known for its natural charm and refreshing waters. Surrounded by lush greenery, this serene spot is a favorite among locals and travelers seeking a peaceful escape and a quick dip in nature’s pool.
Its name was derived from the "bunga" plant or "beetle nut" in English; that was many years ago, when the area was still abundant with this plant. During our Mt. Kalisungan and Mt. Mabilog hikes, Bunga Twin Falls was our side trip and post-climb destination. The ambiance in the area is cool and relaxing because it is surrounded by trees, coconuts, and other plants. Today, this twin falls is definitely one of the summer destinations in Laguna.
Although it looks stunning, Bunga Falls is not recommended during the rainy season because the water overflows and is prone to accidents, as the rocks are slippery when wet. It is best during summer because the water is cool and crystal clear while the pressure is perfect for soared muscles. There are a few cottages built by the locals that can be rented. Aside from swimming and dipping into the cool water, you can make your visit extreme by jumping off the cliff into the water. According to the residents, the depth of the pool is more than 20 feet, so for those people who are not into swimming, please lang wag na umarte at wag na magpasikat. There were accidents in the area.
Whether you’re chasing waterfalls or simply looking for a relaxing nature trip, Bunga Falls offers the perfect blend of adventure and tranquility. Its twin cascades and inviting waters make it a must-visit gem in Laguna. Looking for travel ideas across the country?
