South Cotabato: Zip Line at Lake Sebu 7-Falls

South Cotabato, the ancestral domain of the T'Boli tribe and also the home of the majestic Lake Sebu Seven Falls. Visitors often go to Lake Sebu to see the Seven falls and ride the zipline which gives the nicest view from above. 

Upon arrival, visitors will be asked to pay the entrance of Php20 each.

We trailed 774 steps to get up close to Hikong Bente, the 2nd waterfalls and though going down could be easy, going up is completely different story.

This is just a part of the 774 steps going to and from Hikong Bente.

And to the most awaited part, its zip-line time! The easiest way to see the other falls which is divided into 2 parts, a 740 meter ride from falls 1 to 5 and another 400 meter ride passing through falls 5 and 2 on the parking area, this is just where we realized that we should have visited Falls 2 after the zip-line.

It’s amazing how much you can see in a minute.
