Osmeña Peak

The highest point on Cebu Island at roughly 1,013 meters, with jagged limestone peaks stretching in every direction. The summit is just a 30-minute climb, making it a popular spot for sunrise.

Osmeña Peak rises from the Mantalongon Highlands in the town of Dalaguete. Around the summit is a sharp, rolling landscape of limestone pinnacles, nicknamed “Cebu’s Chocolate Hills.” On clear days you can see both the east and west coasts. From the trailhead parking area it's about 20–30 minutes on foot to the top, and the entrance fee is roughly ₱30–50. Fit hikers can take the Osmeña Peak–Kawasan Falls traverse (about 5–6 hours, guide required). From Moalboal or Oslob it's about an hour by habal-habal, and mornings are cooler.
