Tumalog Falls waterfall is an amazing nature’s gift of Cebu that is located in Oslob Municipality.
It is located in Barangay Luka, which is close to the famous whaleshark attraction in Oslob. In fact, it is becoming a common trend among whale shark visitors to drop by at Tumalog Falls after their whale shark experience.
It only takes about 2 hours and a half to get close to the area, which is about 170 kilometers from Cebu City. To learn more about this amazing waterfall, let’s check out some of the features which our words are very limited to describe…
There are various terms that we can employ to describe this wonderful nature. And as human beings, we must accept and be humble that we are just but limited to describe in understanding and much more in describing nature.
Some enthusiasts and observers describe Tumalog Falls as ‘gossamer’ since it creates a silky, very light and gauze-like fabric descending down transforming into a basin of water.
Others describe it as ‘horsehair’ (especially white horse’s) due to how the water flows creating like horse’s tail or neck hair.
Some visitors would describe the waterfalls as a ‘white curtain’ covering the whole wall of rock within the forest. It seems like a white curtain and a transparent one.
And some observers describe the waterfalls as a series of umbrellas hanging by the rock walls. That’s because although there is a main waterfall they remain in contact with the rock wall which are shaped in such a way that they create umbrella effects of the falling waters. Please, look at the photo and you’ll know what I’m trying to describe!
Finally, you can hear the sound of the falling water like a concert composed of sounds from various musical instruments but creating a soothing melody.
