Gearing Up for Mt. Pinatubo

Things to Bring:
  • Hiking shoes or sandals (if you will be crossing the river, I suggest you bring sandals)
  • Cap and Head Gear (to cover your nose if you are to ride 4X4… It gets dusty during summer or if it did not rain…) you can get this at a cheaper price in SM malls under accessories area, I got mine for Php  75. You can find some good stuff in Divisoria too price range 75 - 150.
  • Shades or Eye Protector (same reason as above)
  • Sunscreen
  • 2-3 liters of bottled water
  • Energy bars
  • Comfortable hiking shorts or pants
  • Comfortable clothes
  • Arm sleeves or biker’s sleeves


  • Extra clothes
  • Earth mat or blanket which you can use once we are at the peak
  • Jacket (Van’s AC might get too cold)
  • Pillow
  • Hiking Bag (make sure that you don't bring too heavy stuff because we are just having a day tour)
  • Extra Money
  • Camera or Camcorder to capture your memories
  • Patience and appreciation
Enjoy and see you!
