    The cavern is quiet large. Many interesting rock formations. Some unfortunately damaged. There is some light inside but not efficient so it is better to bring your own torch. To reach the entrance you have to climb 150 m up from the road. The entrance fee is 50 PHP per person. One may follow up the path up (300 m) to reach viewpoint with a cross.

    Who would have thought that there is a cave in Antipolo just an hour and a half drive from Metro Manila. The view on the peak is beautiful although you have to climb a lot of stairs. Be careful as there are green molds in every staircase which make them slippery. There are cottages where you can eat your snacks. There is an entrance fee but no parking area. Just leave your car along the road. The road going here is not cemented so be ready for a rough road drive. There is no public transportation going here as it is comparable to a hidden place, you will not find neighborhood within the compound.

    I just searched on google maps on what places to go to in antipolo and this is one of the most searched place so we decided to try. At first we did not know if this is the right place because the road was not paved and there were no people in the entrance. We paid 50 per person and the tour guide was very knowledgable and friendly. A must see in Antipolo ☺️

    Mystical cave has been discovered by Mam Inday at 1970 and the cave opened in the public on 1980's, the cave is 2 story grand rooms, a secret rooms. I recommend this place for students, adventurist and travelers to experience the beauty inside. The place is also for religious groups. 50 pesos - guide fee for first floor of the cave only 100pesos - guide fee for the all floors of the cave. There's mini assault trek if you want to go to top cross.

    Totally worth the inexpensive entrance fee of ₽50 per person. The caves are full of stalactites and stalagmites dripping water from the ceiling. Various rock formations and intriguing lime deposits shows mystical figures. There’s a face of Jesus, resting Jesus, Mary and child, and the Holy Spirit - all in the limestone.

    The nearest cave accessible from Metro Manila for aspiring spelunkers. To get there from Marilaque by private vehicle (there were no public transportation accessible to the attraction spot, thus don't expect to find one), once the large limestone mountain is found, turn right to Puting Bato - White Cement Road and expect the extreme slow travel for 23 minutes along the sharp rocky road, since the roads were undeveloped for years. If coming from Hinapao - Tagbac Road from Sumulong Circle, expect the uneven road and steep ascent to the site. Parking is limited, and can be parkrd in the soil near the wild trees and shrubs in front of the entrance. The entrance fee is P50.00 to be paid to the locals. Wooden cottage is available. It takes a 10-minute stairway walk to Inday Nelly Delens Cave. The interior cave was so awesome, as I see the pure white Stalactites and Stalagmite formation. The cave was now lighted inside by a bulb. It was wide as if I was in the Basilica or Cathedral. It was humid, but expect some bats to be encountered when entering from the outside. The stalagmite is a white rock formation and it shines like there was a glass or salt gleaming from a flashlight. Unlike stalactites, stalagmites form from the base of the floor. It was a hidden gem of Antipolo. There were two staircase to choose from: Whether visiting first the Calvary Mountain or enter the Mystical Cave first. I can be both hikers and spelunkers in a single day. Spelologists may come to cave for research, upon coordination with the locals.

    Mystical Cave in Antipolo is a must see for those who wants a glimpse of nature. The cave is not that big and is safe for those who wanted to start exploring the wonders of nature. There is also a trekking experience which can be accomplished even by those who haven't done it before. If you are someone who wishes to go for trekking and caving experience, try going here first, it is like a warm up exercise or a prologue in a story in which you would know if those types of activities are really for you. The cave is somewhat commercialised now that is why some of the formations are already deformed. I hope they would take care of the place so that It would be enjoyed by the younger generations. The guides are really accomodating. Kudos guys! My only concern is the mountain of plastic bottles near the entrance. I hope the place would not deteriorate. Overall, I enjoyed our tour here. I recommend this place to other travellers. Go and experience Mystical Cave in Antipolo!

    Hidden gem off the typical tourist path, totally worth the visit, considering its relative proximity to Metro Manila. The spot is not very easily accessible, a car is a must in my opinion. Watch your steps as you are climbing up the stairs to the entrance of the cave, it tends to get really slippery. Going down after the visit might be a bit of a challenge. The cave itself is very spacious and clean, a local guide will show you around for approx. PHP 100. There's also a symbolic entrance fee, since the cave is privately owned.

    It's a one of a kind ever changing cave . Be ready for a steep hike and some climb. Bring some bottles of water and a torch light ( yellow beams are better) it's worth the trip in and out of the cave

    Interesting cave attraction near Metro Manila. There is the basic tour and an advanced tour in which you need caving equipment. We just availed of the basic tour. Most of the rock formations in the cave are religious depictions. The tour guide was helpful, explaining well and also taking our group shots. Since we didn't have time to climb up to the white cross, I just used a drone to capture the beautiful views at the top.

    Nice cave, you have to climb a lot of stairs ( a little slippery) from the road to.the cave entrance. Nice inside, just a little disappointed that they are collecting the water in buckets. So the floor of the cave is not wet. They are diverting some water with the use of a pipe to create an artificial bath. That's a little sad. It is privately owned, and I don't think they realize what damage they are doing by changing nature. There has been some writing placed on the wall that I could see in 1 place. Using candles as a ceremonial offering. But the wax has dropped on the side of the formations.

    It was indeed a very good experience especially after a long days of work. When going to Antipolo, of course everyone expect that having a overlooking view of mountainous views. At first I wasn't expecting that much, but when we got inside, I was amazed by rock formations while the tour guide telling us the informations about the place and what they call the rock formations are. It's up to your imaginations to imagine those rock formations based on!

    Good one day trip! It's a cave with a lot of interesting stations. Recommended for the religious and adventurous. Also has a mini hike up to the top of the hill the cave is located, which adds to the itinerary. Local tourist guide also mentioned that you're allowed to camp in the cave! Just bring food & don't leave up trash.

    A gift from nature! Unfortunately, the cave was heavily commercialized and lost its original beauty. Nonetheless it is still a must see in Antipolo. You can also trek a little to reach the cross on the top of the hill. Courteous and friendly tour guides.

    Minor hiking spot. Will take you just an hour or two to finish the cove exploration and climbing the peak. Place is safe and good for beginners. Affordable entrance which ranges from 50-150.

    Just an hour drive from Q.C. in the morning. This cave is one of the largest in the area. People would come here to explore or meditate inside the inner chambers. You have to climb a long flight of stairs up to the cave entrance. (200 steps more or less) They charge a small fee for entrance and for the guide. Candles can be bought for those who meditate or would like perform a ceremony inside which I heard is quite popular during the Holy Week. The cave have its share of vandalism so avoid touching the rocks with crystals as the salt and acid from our fingers will damage the surface. You will see in the inner chamber where they collect the water from the stalactite which is drinkable but didn't try at that time. The cave is pretty clean so lets try to keep it that way. There is also just a minimal earthy smell and the place is quite cool. There are some birds inside which you can see when you look at the ceiling with circular holes. Yes Birds Nest but only a few not commercial quantity. DO chat with the guide as there are lots of interesting stuff you can learn from him. Weekdays only a few visitors which is good since there are no parking area along the narrow road if you are driving here.

    Beautiful Natural formations but I hope management will barricade or add warning signs on some spots that looks dangerous. The cave itself is Huge and there's some area that you will see nothing but darkness. Just be careful not to fall , who knows how deep it will go

  • 4/5 Herb C. 1 year ago on Google
    We were surprised in a positive way when we got to explore it all, and considering how accessible it is for people living in the lower Antipolo area and even for the curious from NCR. It is definitely recommended, and to have a grasp of its wonder, you have to explore it all, with the resident guide, or by yourselves if you can. Unfortunately, many portions of the cave have been quite vandalized with etched markings on the walls. I've no issue that there's not enough light (it seems only to the main areas that are frequented by devotees). This apparent lack, however unintentional, actually enhances the darkness ahead that lie in waiting to be discovered which is a plus for me. The pitch-black darkness and silence in many spots (which may be interrupted by swift birds that dwell in there---no cave bats by the way) is also what some come for, including healers from faraway provinces, to meditate from the noise of everyday/city life. However, how the light and wires, etc aesthetics can be improved. An air of sacred still hovers in the caves and it is hoped that visitors recognize and respect this every time the come. It is known to be visited by the religious during weekends and Holy Week.

    Unexpectedly closed on a Saturday with more than 10 people waiting for an hour to see if anyone with a key would show. Reached out ahead of visit, as advised, but no response.

  • 5/5 Richard K. 4 years ago on Google
    According to the caretaker, the cave hosts a lot of guests mostly on Holy Week. On other days, only 1 group or two. When I went there, I was the only guest... There's no public transpo passing by the entrance... fierce dogs greets visitor at the residential areas going up to the cave. The best part is that the natural beauty of the place is not very much altered. One has the option to climb to the peak of the hill where the cave was for the view of Rizal/Antipolo. The best time to go there is I think, in the afternoon for a view of the sunset. The place is typically open for visit from 6AM to 6PM...

    It was very doubtingly adventurous to travel here from Maia Alta just by walking. We went to this unknown route just to see the beauty of its cave and at the top of it. It’s kind of scary at the inside of it but I love how quiet the place is. Hoping to visit this some other time.

  • 4/5 Elena D. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The cave is interesting in that it has an almost ideal tunnel shape at the very beginning, and it is also remarkable that the breed sparkles and overflows in it! The cave is quite large with several branches down and to the sides, but only the main way is illuminated. Under your feet it's sticky and dirty, so you need the right shoes. My shales are very much sticking to the ground. In some places there are screams of bats, but we have not seen them, unfortunately. For some reason, in the cave, there are some similarities of caravans with stones and even a table. Somehow it spoils the look. For the entrance to the cave, by the way, we gave about 50 pesos (it seems). At the entrance the girl gave us a flashlight and showed where the light turns on. (Original) Интересна пещера тем, что имеет практически идеальную форму тоннеля в самом начале, а ещё замечательно то, что порода в ней сверкает и переливается! Пещера довольно крупная с несколькими ответвлениями вниз и в стороны, но освещен только основной путь. Под ногами липко и грязно, поэтому нужна подходящая обувь. Мои сланцы уж сильно местами прилипали к земле. Кое-где слышатся крики летучих мышей, но мы их не видели, к сожалению. Зачем-то в пещере оставлены какие-то подобия вагонеток с камнями и даже стол. Как-то это портит вид. За вход в пещеру, кстати, мы отдали около 50 песо (кажется). На входе девочка дала нам фонарь и показала, где включается свет.

    Great for religious people, a little hard to get to, but well worth the scenery. There is a separate path next to the cave going up to the top of the mountain. Do not go when the ground is wet and muddy unless you are up for trying to climb steep muddy walls with sharp rocks around.
