Casaroro Falls
Description
A roughly 100-foot single-drop cascade tucked into a ravine at the foot of Cuernos del Negros (Mount Talinis), and the most photographed waterfall in Negros Oriental. Getting there is part of the experience — around 350 concrete-and-metal steps down into the ravine, then a rocky scramble with several river crossings before the falls come into view, dropping into a deep, cold, greenish pool. Popular as a half-day trip from Dumaguete, often combined with Pulangbato Falls and Red Rock Hot Spring since all three sit in Valencia within a short habal-habal ride of each other. No vendors at the falls itself — bring water and snacks, and sturdy shoes for the wet rock.
