About this experience

The Churches in Mt. Hibok-Hibok are a cluster of historic Catholic sanctuaries on the volcanic slopes of Camiguin Island. This activity links the island’s Spanish-era mission churches, including the ruins of the Old Catarman Church, with the active volcano’s dramatic landscape. Visitors walk or drive between sites that blend colonial architecture, lava-stone walls, and panoramic views of the sea and peak.

What to expect

  • Visit the Sunken Cemetery and the Old Catarman Church ruins, partially submerged and destroyed by the 1871 volcanic eruption.
  • Tour the Santo Rosario Church in Sagay, built in 1882, with its coral-stone facade and separate bell tower.
  • Walk the 1.5-kilometre Stations of the Cross path from the old church ruins to the hilltop Walkway to the Old Cross.
  • See the San Juan Nepomuceno Church in Catarman, rebuilt in 1883, featuring a mix of volcanic rock and coral blocks.
  • Allow 3 to 4 hours for a self-guided drive or tricycle tour covering all four church sites, with short walks at each location.
  • Suitable for history buffs and religious pilgrims; the terrain includes gentle slopes and uneven stone paths, so wear sturdy shoes.
