Lake Danum
Danum Lake
A quiet small lake on a hilltop west of Sagada, surrounded by pine forest. It is a good spot to watch the sunset, and camping is available.
Lake Danum lies about 5 kilometres west of Sagada town, near the road to Besao. It is a small lake surrounded by pine forest and grassy slopes. The evening sun reflects on the water, creating a tranquil atmosphere, and there are campsites by the lake. You can get there by chartered vehicle or motorbike, or walk from town in about 1.5 hours. Entry is free or very low cost. After dark the temperature drops sharply, so bring a jacket.
