Ditumabo Falls – The majestic waterfall is approximately 140 ft. high, the surrounding mountainous area is covered with tall hardwoods, green shrubbery and vines. Drizzles of cool water seem to remain suspended I the air.
The crystal clear river of Ditumabo Falls gushes endlessly, flowing and twisting among countless rocks and boulders. Traversing to the waterfall is an enjoyable 45 minutes (2 kms.) hiking and trekking through the river over rough terrain, few steep mountain trail, river trail utilizing man made stairs, wooden bridges and sometimes old cut logs which serve as natural bridges. The shower falls and the baby falls are a sight to see before the mother falls.

Barely a hundred meters away from dirt road passable to most vehicles, Caunayan Falls is one of the most accessible falls of Aurora. The falls strongly sprays water from cliff where greenery and even some flowers grow. Creating a great contrast against the white and light gray gravel sand area washed out by intermittent floods, the crystal clear stream fringed only by the blue reflection of the sky and its wild temperature makes it ideal for baths. The bank of the stream is a gravel sand area suitable for picnics.
Popular among locals and tourists alike, Caunayan is a seven-tier water fall. It has become a challenge for thrill-seekers to navigate the top of this unique water feature as it can only be done with minimal support from deeply-seated rocks and hanging wild vines. It’s cool water is so clean and clear that visitors would drink on it. Being close to the town center and having cottages and basic amenities make it the preferred weekend destination among families.
