The key to make it work is that to book your flight early, make all the preparations and contacts as early as possible. All the things that you need to buy should be listed to save time. Make all your arrangements to your point of contact as clear as possible to avoid delays.

Margaja Valley

What we did is that we traverse Kanlaon in 2 days , we ascend to the peak on the day we arrived in Canlaon City. Then we descend the next day, rest in basecamp, wait for the first trip going to dumaguete, meet the guide and start our journey to traverse Mt Talinis.
