About Cathedral Falls
Cathedral Falls is a waterfall located in Barangay Cathedral, municipality of Kapatagan, Lanao del Norte, Mindanao, Philippines. It is known for rock formations that resemble cathedral walls and pillars surrounding a cascade that flows into a shallow basin. The site is developed as a local eco-tourism attraction with cottages and swimming areas, set within a forested valley accessible by a short trek from the barangay center.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a curtain-like waterfall dropping over layered rock walls into a wide, shallow pool suitable for wading and swimming. The falls are framed by high, cathedral-like rock formations and lush vegetation. A short trail leads from the parking area to viewing decks, cottages and picnic areas near the basin. The setting is natural and forested, with clear water, photo spots along the rock walls, and areas for relaxing by the pool.
