Walkway to the Old Volcano and Stations of the Cross

The Walkway to the Old Volcano and Stations of the Cross is a Catholic pilgrimage and heritage trail in Bonbon, Catarman, Camiguin, leading up the slopes of Mt. Vulcan (the Old Volcano). Built to commemorate the 1871 eruption that destroyed the old town of Catarman, the walkway features 14 life-size Stations of the Cross statues along a steep concrete stairway through forest. It offers religious reflection, historical context, and panoramic views of the coastline and surrounding landscape.

Visitors can expect a steep, paved stairway and footpath ascending the forested slope of Mt. Vulcan with 14 life-size Stations of the Cross statues at intervals. The route passes through tropical vegetation with rest stops and viewpoints overlooking Catarman, the coastline and neighboring islands. At the upper section, the trail reaches the rim area of the Old Volcano. The setting is quiet and devotional, with historical markers relating to the 1871 eruption and opportunities for photography, sightseeing and reflection.
