Cagayan de Oro City or tagged as the City of Golden Friendship is a 1st class highly urbanized city, a regional center an business hub of Northern Mindanao.

With almost 1.3 Million of population, in its 80 barangays, Cagayan de Oro City has boomed over the years. But despite the urbanization in the city, there lies a hidden haven for those who seeks for an adventure and to connect with nature just within the city.

Known as Mintugsok Falls, it is a series of waterfalls, river pools and rock formations located in the middle of Indahag and Malasag Mountain.

It is accessible in two ways:

  1. INDAHAG TRAIL
    Barangay Indahag can be reached by Jeepneys/ Multicab from Cogon and just tell the driver to drop you off at Indahag Basketball Court crossing. You may take the road going east and follow the trail. There are steep portions along the trail so you need to take extra caution in descending to these portions of the trail. Once at the river, you simply go southeast upstream following the river and reach Mintugsok Falls.

  1. MAPAWA TRAIL

You may hail a “habal-habal” motorcycles at the waiting shed at the National Highway that will lead to you Mapawa. Once you are at the park, there will be two paths to reach Mintugsok Falls, first is via river trail or via Mapawa-Mintugsok.
