Don't go when you tired. It is a good work out, don't go during hot part of the day. View is awesome and our guide took all sorts of family pics for us.

I enjoyed the steps up! Its a slow ascend that a,lows one to enjoy the surrounding view. Though, the top was the reward. Climbed there in time for sunset. Amazing!

If you wanted to do a leg day unexpectedly, go here at Mt. Tapyas! You'll be able to see the view on top and it was very worth the walk.

700 step but is worth it, great view on the top. Finish it during the sunset in order to get some great shots from the top.

It is a lovely place. The front part is ocean view and the back is mountain view. The stair aint fun but there goes another leg day for you. Once you reach the top, there is a huge cross.

Perfect spot for the awesome sunset. Bring water and extra shirt. You'll get really sweaty when you get to the top.

As a fairly fit, solo travelling quinquagenarian, I managed the 700 plus steps (721), with but little more effort necessary than a broad smile.
Unless you are unusually unhealthy, you should have no problems ascending the summit, just give yourself sufficient time and enjoy the climb. And yes, the view at sunset is beautiful, especially when shared with that someone special.
Once at the top, there are other paths you can follow which lead off from the summit which, can extend your stay there considerably should you wish and have the time to spare.
Only a few negatives to note.
Lot's of very young and persistent vendors, mostly selling water or plain old tat (rubbish), plotted along the climb.
As the summit is crowned by a white Catholic Cross, seeing it used by the odd camera-happy tourist as a climbing frame was I thought, more than a little disrespectful.
Overall, if and when it Coron, it really is a rather 'Must-do'!
As always, happy and safe travelling.

Does it have an entrance fee when going here? Is it open to public? Estimated time of climbing up and down? I really am interested on going to this place when i get there. And i wanted to see how its up hills! 😍

No entrance fee and it's totally open to public. Time to climb up really depends on how fast and steady your pace is. It took me around 20 minutes to reach the view deck as i made a lot of stops on my way up. Make sure to climb all the way up the view deck as the view up there is amazing.

Hi! My husband and I will be here in November. We hope to climb this mountain. Do you recall if the mosquitoes were out? Should we bring repellent? Thank you!

Hi Liane...yes it would be a good idea for you to use a mosquito repellant considering you'll be climbing up a mountain with lots of plants around. Nothing to lose by being prepared and protected!
is this open during Sundays?

Mt. Tapyas is open to the public 24/7. No entrance fee needed. It serve as recreational activity in the area. But one must bring hydration if plan to go there. Advise to be there early in the morning to see sunrise and to explore farther. It is also good to go there at night, the pathway is well lighted by solar lamps but you cannot explore the hill side of the area because its not lighted.
