BASANG COLD SPRING

Another next-door resort, Basang, has a distinct offering—one of the country’s longest caves.

From the site’s cold spring pools, Basang Cave is an easy, five-minute hike up a mountainside trail. A century-old narra tree and a massive rock of black marble guard the cave’s entrance. Twenty minutes’ worth of exploring will be enough for casual visitors, but serious spelunkers might choose to spend hours pushing much, much deeper.

The chambers seem to go on forever, because the cave goes under the mountains straight to the adjacent province of Antique. Read More: http://www.choosephilippines.com/go/water-forms/1359/top-six-things-to-do-nabas-boracays-neighbor

The Basang and Hurom-Hurom Cold Springs are popular alternative summer destinations as its waters gushing from above the beautifully and naturally endowed huge rock formations are cool and clear. Locals even claim these waters are potable.  Read More:  http://aklan.gov.ph/tourism/nabas/

At Basang, there is nothing like enjoying the cold water while occasionally sneaking up behind our two companions who took charge of preparing lunch. Taking a few slices of bite-size, grilled salted pork and plunging back into the cold, free-flowing water is probably one of the best ways to spend a rainy get away from the city.

Going there during a rainy season had lots of advantages. One: It was freaking cold but we loved it. Even during summer, they say that the waters of both resorts are as cold as ice. The rains make the place even cooler. If you forgot to buy ice cubes for your drinks, improvise! Put your bottles of soft drinks into one of the pools and check it out after a few minutes. You’ll know what we mean.

Two: we had the place all to ourselves! There was no one in the resort, except for a few caretakers. You’ll have no problems renting lifebuoys and grills.

Basang Cold Spring has this shallow canal which supplies the cold spring water for the whole resort. Kids will surely enjoy riding on of the large salbabidas and make their way down to one of the smaller pools through an opening underneath a small bridge. We tried it and believe me when I say we felt like we were back in 5th grade.

Go there with your friends (anytime of the year except peak seasons) or maybe you and your family might actually end up having a private pool party.   Read More:  http://mekatalaka.blogspot.com/2011/06/hurom-hurom-and-basang-cold-springs.html
