Malatan-og Falls

Malatan-og Falls is a forest waterfall located in Barangay Igmaya-an, Don Salvador Benedicto, Negros Occidental, often called the Summer Capital of Negros. Surrounded by pine trees and cool highland vegetation, the falls features a multi-tiered cascade flowing into a shallow natural pool. It is notable for its accessible trek, scenic highland setting, and cool climate, making it a popular nature stop for visitors traveling between Bacolod and the northern highlands.

Visitors can expect a short trek through a pine-forested trail leading to a multi-tiered cascade with a shallow natural pool at its base. The setting is cool and forested, typical of the Don Salvador Benedicto highlands, with natural rock formations and surrounding vegetation. Areas to explore include the viewing area near the pool and the forest trail. Activities are nature-based, centered on sightseeing, photography, and wading or swimming in the pool when conditions permit.
