Are you looking for unspoiled and breathtaking scenery within

Then the Sierra Madre Road or Marilaque Highway (Markina Rizal Laguna Quezon) from to
Real, Quezon will be a great destination for you.
Then the Sierra Madre Road or Marilaque Highway (Markina Rizal Laguna Quezon) from to
Real, Quezon will be a great destination for you.
The Marikina-Infanta Highway is a
scenic route ideal for mountain bikers, runners, avid tourists and motor
bikers. You will really enjoy the breathtaking view of mountain ranges
and the cold weather of Sierra Madre. It has the same weather like
the one in Baguio. The long stretches of mountain ranges and virgin forest is
awesome. This place is not commercialized with any residential
subdivisions and posters and yet it is only a 2 hour drive from Metro
Manila.
A good
place to stay at Real, Quezon is Pacific Park Recreation Kamp. The
Recreation Kamp contains picnic huts in a spacious, green grass land right
beside the sea. It is a perfect place where you can cook your own food,
and enjoy spending time with the people you love and it is just located in
front of the Surfing Zone of Real, Quezon. The beach here is
not that nice since the sand is dark brown and it is quite rocky. But you can
catch a few waves during summer for a very affordable price. If the waves are
too small you can also try the new sport paddle boarding. You can also do skim
boarding at the beach. There is 1 beach house for rent at the
resort if you want to sleep here. You can also rent a tent from the
resort or bring one if you have. I advise you to just take a day trip for
convenience purposes since their rest rooms are not that nice.
An added feature to your day trip is going to Balabag Falls. It is
only a five minute walk through
the forest. The waterfalls can be perfect for a refreshing dip before heading for a long drive
home. If you want to experience some adrenaline rush, you may want to climb the waterfalls and
jump off.

After enjoying the mountain and sea views
and experiences you surely would say Real Quezon
is the best destination within just a few hours from the hustle and bustle of Manila

Travel Tips:
-If you are just taking a day trip I would advise you to
leave Manila at 5am so that you can arrive at Real, Quezon 9am. Enjoy the
summer vibe and leave the area at around 4:30pm. For safety purposes at night,
take the different route to the other side of Real, Quezon, since there are
many “NPA’s” roaming around the mountain.
-Don't sleep while you’re on the road of Marikina-Infanta Highway, so that you will enjoy the breathtaking view of Sierra Madre Mountain.
