Waterfalls in Cotabato
Cotabato, often called North Cotabato, sits in the SOCCSKSARGEN region of central Mindanao. Our coverage includes Asik-Asik Falls and Daday Falls, both in Alamada. Asik-Asik is a wide curtain that seeps from a forested cliff, while Daday is a tall plunge in a steep ravine upstream. Both sites are remote, and the usual approach is by road from Cotabato City or Kidapawan, with a local guide and a high-clearance vehicle for the final stretch. The province is also a base for Mount Apo approaches and Lake Agco. Roads and river levels change with the weather, so the dry season is the most reliable time to plan a visit.
