I agree @discoveringarni! The trail was amazing as I remember it. There is something new every turn you make.
I decided to walk on my own towards a lesser-known area.
And we always end up in unexpected places when we do this! And about the rain, yes, it also makes the climb a fun experience and I had a few more stories to tell about climbing on a heavy rainfall. So stay tune!
I also bring my friends coming from other places to Osmena peak but only choosing the shorter way since most of them are not climbers.
