Tagaytay - Venue & Concept

Home

Taal Volcano is a complex volcano located on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. It is the second most active volcano in the Philippines with 33 historical eruptions.

All of these eruptions are concentrated on Volcano Island, an island near the middle of Taal Lake. The lake partially fills Taal Caldera, which was formed by prehistoric eruptions between. Viewed from Tagaytay Ridge, Taal Volcano and Lake presents one of the most picturesque and attractive views in the Philippines. The crater lake on Volcano Island is the largest lake on an island in a lake on an island in the world. It is located about 50 kilometres (31 miles) south of the capital of the country, the city of Manila.

Trekking at Taal Volcano

Trekking at Taal Volcano offers a unique adventure across one of the Philippines’ most iconic and active volcanoes. Located in Batangas and rising from the middle of Taal Lake, the volcano is renowned for its stunning landscape—a crater within a lake, on an island, within a larger lake. The trek to the crater rim is moderately challenging and rewards hikers with breathtaking panoramic views of the caldera, crater lake, and surrounding highlands. Along the way, volcanic rocks, steam vents, and rugged terrain reveal the volcano’s dynamic nature. Despite its fiery past, Taal Volcano provides a peaceful and surreal experience, making it a must-visit for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.

Taal Lake

Riding a local boat across Taal Lake is the traditional gateway to reaching Taal Volcano and experiencing the charm of Batangas’ natural beauty. These outrigger boats, locally known as bangkas, glide across the serene lake, offering scenic views of volcanic landscapes, surrounding villages, and lush greenery. The journey is both peaceful and exhilarating, with cool breezes and gentle waves adding to the experience. Often operated by local fishermen-turned-guides, the boat ride also offers a glimpse into the lives and resilience of lakeside communities. More than just transportation, the Taal Lake boat ride is a cultural and scenic introduction to one of the Philippines’ most captivating natural wonders.
