Pulangbato Falls Mountain Resort

About This Museum

You might not believe it, but the name 'Pulangbato'—meaning 'red rock'—comes from the water itself, stained a rusty crimson by the mineral-rich volcanic springs that feed it. The main attraction is, of course, the stunning waterfall cascading over those distinctive cliffs into a serene, emerald-green natural pool. A charming, slightly swaying bamboo hanging bridge offers a different perspective from above, connecting the two lush, forested banks of the stream. It’s less a formal museum and more a living gallery of nature’s own art, where the exhibits are the rocks, the water, and the vibrant jungle life.

Collection Highlights

The star exhibit is undoubtedly the waterfall and its red-rock cliff face, constantly shaped by mineral-laden waters. Don't miss the natural swimming pool below, a refreshing centerpiece, and the experience of crossing the traditional bamboo hanging bridge for a classic Negros countryside view.

Visitor Information

Just a short motorcycle ride from Valencia town proper; wear sturdy sandals for the rocky paths and don't forget your swimsuit for a dip in that irresistible pool.

Architecture & Building

The 'architecture' here is all nature-made: towering volcanic rock formations covered in jungle greenery form the walls, with the waterfall as a dynamic centerpiece. The only man-made structure of note is the simple, functional bamboo hanging bridge that adds to the rustic charm.
