Appreciate serenity and beauty of nature in this Aurora waterfall.


Aurora is known for its beaches and surfing destinations but this province has also other great tourist attractions. This includes some magnificent waterfalls that can be seen in the municipalities of the province and one of them is the majestic Caunayan Falls.


In 2017, my gang (Team Basti), went for a 3-day trip to Aurora including an overnight stay at Dinadiawan Beach in Dipaculao. On our last day, we did not miss to visit to experience Caunayan Falls. 

For detailed itinerary and complete tourist spots to visit, read my Baler DIY Travel Guide.


SAN LUIS AND ITS NATURAL BEAUTY

Not known to many, the municipality of San Luis, like Baler, is rich in natural resources and scenic tourist destinations. It boasts crystal clear river system, abundant flora and fauna, charming waterfalls, spring water and the heavily forested terrain.

Caunayan Falls catch basin

San Luis is actually the home of the two popular falls in Aurora. The first one is the Ditumabo and the other one is the serene Caunayan Falls which is more accessible. But what really makes Caunayan so special is the serenity of the entire place.

San Luis has five popular tourist destinations. These include the two major waterfalls – the Caunayan falls (also known as L. Pimentel Falls) and the Ditumabo Falls. Ditumabo falls are reachable by crossing rivers, fallen lodges and wooden bridges. It will take you about forty-five minutes to reach the fascinating waterfall.

Meanwhile Caunayan is much easier to hike and it is a pleasant environment to have your picnic and outing. The mild temperature of Caunayan falls makes it perfect for cleansing the body.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT CAUNAYAN FALLS

The Caunayan Falls is a seven-tier falls but the water coming down is not as wide and appealing as the Ditumabo which I have already visited during my first travel to Baler. Plus the fact that it is more accessible than Ditumabo, it will give you more reason to choose to visit it.

Entering Caunayan Falls

The entrance via Amatorio Resort where you have to pay Php20.00 per head and Php100.00 per cottage. The cottages are located along the stream passing to the basin of the falls.

Downstairs to Caunayan Falls

From the entrance, you will just have to walk a few steps to reach the stairs heading to the falls.

One thing you will notice upon arrival to the falls, the catch basin is below-the-waist deep you appreciate its crystal clear water and soft sand bottom.

The strong streams of the river towards Caunayan Falls

There are just parts of the streams which a bit strong but bearable. Another notable feature of Caunayan Falls are the boulders of huge rocks with varying sizes.
