    Dampalit Falls is a mountain waterfalls hidden in the Brgy. Bambang-Lalakay area, where the topmost 100 feet small mountain is the UPLB Territory. The boundary of two barangays is separated by a tributary known as Dampalit Creek or River. To get there, parking is recommended in the DPWH Laguna Region, which is the only parking area for vehicles; however, seek permission from the security guard as parking area inside the DPWH is intended for employees even on weekends. Nevertheless, vehicles, even motorcycles, may allow entry to DPWH and pass to the other side of the steep paved-road, but expect the off-road rocky and muddy terrain. They have parking area on the local community side (non-DPWH) but almost only the motorcycles can park therein. There are two roads to pass thru: Brgy. Bambang or Brgy. Lalakbay (roads beside Lalakay Elementary School). Both roads are passable on foot, and it takes 20 minutes approximately to reach the waterfall. Once you saw the Virgin Mary Grotto beside the Creek, you are directly reaching Dampalit Falls. The small cottage is made of wood and dilapidated. The water is cold, but brownish. The flow of water from the top is thin, unlike most waterfalls that are pouring heavy. The thinness of the falling water sometimes becomes a mist though it still flows down the water pool. The water pool is shallow, with a size of an human ankle. Though it is a private property, with just P20 entrance fee from the locals as part of tourism livelihood program, you can swim freely in the water near the waterfall. Be wary, as the rocks and boulders are too slippery near the waterfalls. When going back to the highway, another detour is the Brgy. Lalakay area. Note that the only destination is thru DPWH or Lalakay Elementary School, not the UPLB Jamboree Road.

    good to go to around morning. From manila went here on a bus with my GF and we hand a good time and walking around the place. Need to pay small amount (no receipt) to the caretaker. Be courteous to the people you passed going here. People are nice too.

    The map showed the wrong way. The correct way to the falls was thru the DPWH. the road narrows to a single pane good only for motorcycles. You have to leave the car at the makeshift basketball court then a short trek from there. The falls is tall and the water beneath it is just shallow. Just waist deep. Only a few people go here on weekdays. It was raining when we went here so the water was a little murky.

    It's not far to walk from where you leave the car. It's a nice little oasis. The water by the falls in pretty shallow so great to swim in.

    Small and swallow yet very good for refreshment and family bonding. There is an entrance fee of 20 pesos. There is also a cottage where you can rent at a low price. You can bring your own foods or cook on the site. It is near and can be reach by just walking a few minutes. There is also a parking lot for motorcycle only with 20 pesos fee.

    You have to pay 25 to get in. Parking is difficult, we parked on the main road and walked in. Falls are beautiful, try and go during the week when there will be less people.

    Don't use Google maps to get there! You will be blocked by a guard on a private road, too dangerous daw. Use the DENR outpost as an entrance.

    You won't get the best falls experience but I can say that it is one of the underrated falls in the Laguna area that needs support from the government to help the locals. All in all, you should visit this place.

    A great falls, although the current of the water isn't that strong as of today, it's still a good place to visit! Great view! A good place to relax and be one with nature!
