Experience 16 degree coldness at the highest peak of Cebu, Osmeña Peak

Noel, Phillip, Me, Jan & Grace at the Peak

It's an almost three to four hour trip from Cebu City to Osmeña Peak, the most noteworthy mountain in Cebu that is a most loved among explorers for its pleasant perspective of the farmland. 

Most known as O' Peak, it offers an amazing perspective of the dawn, dusk and the white coastline embracing the coral blue ocean and spiked slopes with rich grass and patches of blossoms.

Osmena Peak rises 1,013 meters above ocean level and is settled between the southern towns of Dalaguete and Badian. 

It straddles the Mantalongon range in the southwest and offers a 360 degree perspective of nature, including the islands of Bohol and Negros. Dalaguete town found 80 kilometers far from Cebu City is known as the vegetable wicker bin and summer capital of Cebu with its cool air and rise. Most trekkers take the course from the town's intersection going to Mantalongon market which takes 30 to 45 minutes. 

To arrive, one can ride a transport going to Santander or Argao town at the South Bus Terminal for P140 one way. One can ask the driver to be dropped from at the Dalaguete intersection. From that point, lease a habal habal / motorbike to barangay Mantalongon or at the mountain's foot for Php100 per head. 

Neighborhood kids work low maintenance as visit aides and can lead you to the top for P100 to P200. On the off chance that you arrange a day-trek simply as we did, wear long sleeves since the temperature can all of a sudden drop as you move up. Use sunblock to shield you from the warmth and bring drinking water
