In this thriving era of mountaineering, almost everyone has experienced a mountain or two to unlock their new leisure, but not all can withstand the long hours of hiking. Thankfully, there is Treasure Mountain to welcome those who want to experience highland view without employing too much effort.
Treasure Mountain is located in Sitio Maysawa Brgy. Cuyambay, Tanay, Rizal and is less than two hours away from Manila. This place is famed for its effortless sea of clouds and superb view of Sierra Madre mountain ranges.
Sea of clouds is not guaranteed to be visible, but the scenic landscape will always be a treat to coming visitors. There are beautiful rock formations and cliffs that make a good vantage point with an endless green as backdrop. Getting to these spots could be slippery at times and there are sharp edges to watch out for.

malinis po ba ang CR nila? comfort room and bathrooms?
Malinis naman po ang CR, lalakad lang po ng unti from campsite.
No need naman po ba reservations?
If weekends, mas ok pa din po magpareserve kayo for tent accommodation if mag-overnight. Kung day tour lang naman, no need po.
ano po best months for sea of clouds? ty
Hi James,
Hindi po guaranteed ang sea of clouds it still depends on the weather, but we recommend during Ber months to February para sa mas malamig na weather. 🙂
