Never Mind The Sulfur
Mount Apo is surrounded by mountain ranges and it is actually declared as a preserved area. On the way, the view was relaxing and it's great to know that people have kept the lushness of flora around the tallest mountain in our country. There you could see the boiling lake as featured by those who visited the place. It was 50-100 meters away from the resort. People are not allowed to swim there because of the high temperature of the water. Since Mount Apo is a dormant volcano, it is expected that one or two hot springs are present within the vicinity. Lake Agco is one of them. And of course we just stayed on the immersible pools and had fun with the sauna bathrooms. Long I had wished to explore the place again never mind the sulfur! Had fun with the family! Just a tip, It's better to go on week days since there are lesser visitors. So you don't need to rub elbows with strangers. Otherwise you may go on weekends to meet new friends.

Relaxation at the foot of Mt. Apo
Accommodation is budget type, meaning you do not expect hotel amenities. Suffice to say that if you just want a bed to crash in at a very affordable rate, then you got it here. The pool is so-so but the ambiance is great. A must-try is their jacuzzi type pool with boiling water coming out of Mt. Apo. Very relaxing if you don't mind the sulfuric odor that is common in this side of the mountain. Love to laze in the jacuzzi for Php20 entrance fee. With that amount, you also get to try the sulfuric steam bath nearby.
