Is climbing Mt. Daraitan good for beginners?
Not really but it can be with proper preparations. What made the trail hard was its steep trail. It was an all assault hike, with its slope more than 80 degrees, that might feel steep to those not used to hiking. During our hike, it rained… kinda hard, making the trail not only steep but also muddy and very slippery.

| At the Rocky side of Mt. Daraitan |
It almost killed me several times on the way up (esp. on the way down) ,😭triggered my fear on possibly falling from a steep cliff & gave me couple of bruises and cuts. It took us about 3 hours to reach the peak and another 4 on the way down but the view from the summit and the river that awaits us down the mountain were definitely breathtaking.

*****
Tinipak River at Mt. Daraitan will give you the magnificent feeling. Tinipak River, a hidden paradise in Brgy. Daraitan in Tanay, Rizal, was awarded as the cleanest inland body of water in Region IV. Reaching this destination requires patience and endurance in trekking giant trails of rock, making Tinipak River a perfect getaway for those who love outdoor adventure. So prepare your stamina with enormous effort for going up and down toward giant trail of rocks but walking by the river with lush green trees and hearing the rippling sound of it will surely keep you going. From giant boulders to tranquil and cool river water, this place has everything you need to enjoy an adrenaline-filled weekend. I would always be thankful to witness a precious God given nature that would always leave a mark in my heart. Tinipak River, truly a God's gift to human.
