Other famous tourist spots in Dalaguete are the Osme\u00f1a Peak, Lagnason Creek, Obong Spring, and the Kulabyaw Cave.

The cold spring is locally known and the trail leading to the spring is surrounded by lots of trees, making your trek going to the spring will be light and cool one. When you get to the Dingayop Spring you will see big rocks that are yellowish and are called the “malalag” – these naturally formed under the Dingayop waterfalls. The big rocks got its name because of its color and because of its depth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dingayop Cave, also known as the Eagle’s Cave is definitely a must-visit in the town of Dalaguete. It has stayed undeveloped through the years. Note that the path leading to the cave can be slippery especially when it’s raining or just rained. It’s best to hire a guide to be with you as you go exploring because there are places wherein you’d have to crawl inside the cave. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inside the Dingayop Cave, you will find stalactite formation that looks like the legs of an eagle. That’s why it’s also called the Eagle Cave. Although there is no eagle living inside the cave, just so you won’t expect too much and be disappointed when you get to the cave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
