The Mambukal Mountain Resort has many beautiful sites, both made by man and by Mother Nature. The Hot Springs with sulfuric soda water is one of them.
A bath house with spa, famous to the Asian people, particularly the Japanese tourists, is supplied with hot and cold water from the springs coming from the mountain.
The resort has an ideal location for viewing decks or for more great encounters with nature; hanging bridges, rock formations and green forests, different types of tropical trees together with many variety of pines, ferns and orchids that thrive on its low-temperature climate and rich soil also known as Mambukal clay. You can also challenge yourself on the Rock Climbing Wall or the Slide for Life.
The Boating Lagoon, Sulfuric Spring, Dipping Pool, Waterfalls and Other Adventures
A big mountain stream, fed by several tributaries, descends in a series of seven falls and cuts through the center of the resort, feeding the swimming pools and boating lagoon.
Mambukal also boasts a number of hot sulfur springs whose medicinal waters are a balm for the weary flesh and continually feeds the warm dipping pool.
Its slopes and dips house interesting rock formations and lush forests of tropical and semi-tropical trees as well as a variety of pines, ferns and orchids that thrive on its cool climate and rich soil, known as Mambukal clay.
The resort has strategically located viewing decks or, for more intimate encounters with nature, the Canopy Walk, with its hanging bridges. Or go all-out and challenge yourself on the Rock Climbing.
