Crocodile Hill

hike | 2023-04-18
179 m altitude, 164 m prominence, - km isolation

After our successful morning climb of Mount Matutum, we headed back to Davao. On the way, we looked at the map and spotted a small hill with a road leading to the top. Two things were intriguing about this hill: firstly, it is P100, and secondly, it was strangely called Crocodile Hills. Perhaps in the past it was a tourist attraction with a crocodile farm at the top. Today, all we found at the top were abandoned houses with a nice viewing platform. The highest point was probably about a hundred metres away from the houses. There might have been a small bump on the road or in the bushes that marked the top.

After a nice and easy walk, we continue towards Davao, from where we fly to Naga and try to climb our third ultra – Mount Isarog.

Route

We left the car near the barrier, the road looks good, but later it becomes clear that driving a normal car would be difficult due to landslides and rain erosion. We walked along the road all the way to the top. On the way down Rob and I made a short detour to the lower summit.
