From the center of Kalibo, I just hired a tricycle at a very cheap cost to take me to Bakhawan Eco-Park . It was easy and the trip only took us less than half an hour.
Located in New Buswang in Kalibo, so many tourists are visiting here because of the natural and pristine beauty of the place. I could not wait to find out more. Once inside the Bakhawan Eco-Park, you will find this very long bamboo trail that will take you to the other side of the Mangrove forest.
The trail is over a kilometer long and it will take you to some of the scenic areas. It was a long walk so they have benches where you can take a seat and rest. It was a humid day during our walk to the park so make sure to carry some water with you. Read More: http://www.angelotheexplorer.com/2017/08/exploring-bakhawan-eco-park-in-kalibo.html

BAKHAWAN ECO PARK

The main feature of the eco-park allows you to take the 1-kilometer bamboo trail that brings you further into the mangrove plantation. As it is designed to be a friendly eco-tour spot, a simple bamboo lounge is built for every 100-meter walk so you can rest your foot and enjoy the scenery.
Down the trail, the park will enchant you with various types of mangroves and wildlife creatures consisting of birds and aquatic species. A “Pla-pla and Bangus Culture” station can be spotted in the middle part of the trail where visitors are allowed to feed the fishes in the pond. You will also come across children who are selling seafood fresh from their harvest.
An exciting part of the tour is passing the bamboo bridge of the Aklan river which will bring you closer to the Bakhawan Base Camp. For guests who plan to spend overnight in the camp, a tent good for 2 pax can be rented for PhP500 only. Rest rooms are also available and an open bar is readily accessible for your snacks and drinks. Indeed, the site is also an ideal place both for daytime and nighttime picnics.
