Hidden on a lush forest in Brgy. Imugan, Sta. Fe, Nueva Vizcaya is the breathtaking Imugan waterfalls. Sta. Fe, for some, is merely just a stop over for bus trips going to Isabela and Cagayan. But for us, it’s a great place for adventure and nature tripping. I enjoyed walking the trails to Imugan Falls. Lush trees and vegetation provided me comfort and took away all stress I had from the city. Just keep on walking and soon enough, you’ll hear the water from the river which is a sign that you’re near the falls.

The water was freezing cold but we couldn’t resist the chance to try it. So here we were, taking a dip at the cold yet clean and refreshing water. TIP: Get Drunk first 😀 drink Gin so you’ll feel warm before you jump in the water 🙂  Read More:  http://straykittie.tumblr.com/post/71951507242/chasing-waterfalls-imugan-sta-fe-nueva
