Things to see and do Oroquieta

Located in Baungon, near Valencia, in Bukidnon province. It is possible to explore the rainforest and walk on small suspended bridges after climbing 70 m using ropes and harnesses.

This is one of the highlights of any visit to Oroquieta. Located in the Layawan barangay, the Ciriaco Pastrano suspension bridge crosses the eponymous river for around 75 metres to reach the Taboc Norte barangay on the other side. It is 6 meters above sea level and, as it is located at the mouth of the river that flows into the Bohol Sea (via Iligan Bay), it offers a superb view, especially at sunset. While locals use it every day, it can be a challenge the first time as it's a bit shaky.

El Triunfo beach is the main beach of the town of Oroquieta, so it can sometimes be quite crowded, especially on weekend days. The water is not always particularly beautiful, sometimes even polluted by plastics, depending on currents, tides and weather. Along the beach, however, you'll find a string of charming cottages on stilts made of natural materials, making picnics quite pleasant. At sunset, the view of the sea and these stilt houses is really quite something.
