0830 Depart for a trek to the summit of Mt Dagit Dagit. Local Verde Islanders say that Mount Dagit Dagit is the highest point on Isla, although official records claim its sister peak Mt Liponpon might be taller. We will climb Mt Dagit Dagit because it is an easier trek and the views are amazing, then we will cross to part of Liponpon.
From the resort it takes about three hours to get to the summit. On the walk you will have many photo opportunities as the scenery is great. Sometimes local fruits are in season and you might be able to enjoy a dalandan (Filipino Orange) or two along the way. On Isla this fruit is called sintoris.
1200 After a pleasant walk, stop you will stop at the peak for lunch and enjoy the wonderful view.
From Mt Dagit you can see across the Verde Island Passage to Batangas, and looking the other way, across to Mindoro, the large island you visited last night. During Holy Week local priests go to Mt Dagit Dagit for prayer.

At Mount Liponpon you may see beautiful wild flowers growing and you will have more views of Isla and across to other nearby provinces such as Calapan and the area south of Batangas.
1500 By 3pm it is time to leave Mt Liponpon to go to Cueva for a swim and rest. Cueva is well known for a cave that goes through from one side of the island to the other! There is also a lighthouse and you can take some very nice photos from there.
