Continued from Anawangin Cove, Zambales (part 3) – The Open Field
I wondered why the photos of Anawangin Cove that I see online are shots from the top. I did not know that there’s actually a view deck. No one mentioned it in blogs that I’ve read. It always seemed like an areal shot from hiking Mt. Pundaquit. Truth is, the view deck is only about 5-10 minutes of trekking. Easy, breezy and really pretty. :)
These are what you see on the way to the top:
The view deck has two levels, the one steeper than the other. We settled for the lower deck. Enough to see the whole cove.
We would have waited for the sunset but we did not bring flashlights with us, and the group’s mainly composed of inexperienced hikers, so going down the hill would be difficult in the dark. Sunrise and sunsets cannot be seen on the cove because mountains and rock formations would obstruct the view. But the blue sky turning red was a wonderful scene.
Thanks to Reden, Redentor and Dave, our tour guides from Adventure Road Trip for the fun weekend!
