Your Ultimate Travel Bike Guide to Lanawan Rocks, Concepcion, Iloilo PH

Last updated: July 2021
Climbing mountains while riding my bike is my hobby. It challenges my limit; the deep breathes made,  sighs released, and laughter shared in the past are magnified and revived by the solemnity of the journey. Most of the time, I catch myself thinking how much more to reach the top.

Lanawan Rocks  gave me that feeling. When I finally reach at the top, it did not disappoint. The timing of my visit contributed a lot in enabling me to take in as much as I wanted from the trip - have quality time with my friends, appreciate being alive, enjoy the view, and revel in the calm fresh wind, it was a weekday, and there were only us. At that point, we had the mountain for ourselves.

Climbing the mountain is very dangerous it is full of rocks and uneven terrain, you must  watch your footsteps because it is very steep and slippery.
