Falls, rock formations, and the Balanacan harbour view — half a day of riding.

1 day riders half-day day-trippers

If you only have half a day for a ride, this is the better northern half. Boac out, up through Mogpog for the falls and the Tarug rocks, around to the Balanacan view deck, and back. Roughly 50 km round trip.
