What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Ingkumhan Falls is praised for its refreshing blue waters and fun activities like cliff jumping and a Tarzan swing, especially during the June-March season. Visitors appreciate the low entrance fees and free cottages. However, during the dry season (April-May), the water can become stagnant and unappealing, leading to disappointing experiences for some.
"It's a wonderful place to chill and take a swim in. The falls has a fairly small-medium swimming area, has cottages free of charge after paying the parking, and entrance fees although you may need to share it with other people if a lot of people do come. The swimming area also has a small portion where it's just chest high and shallower which is good for non-swimmers. We did go on a a bit rainy Sunday and there was around 10-20 people, not crowded at all, most just came to swim for an hour and went away. Entrance fee per person is just P20 each and extra P20 for car parking. Parking is limited for around 3 cars without double parking, then 5-6 cars with double parking, just a good guess. Motorcycles can park anywhere I think.
In going there, the actual road going to the falls is a single lane road in front of Bauhugan elementary school, which is why it is very much preferred you go with the guide/s that staying in the booth on the main road going to the road to Ingkumhan Falls just incase another vehicle ahead heading towards you, they'll help you out in this situation. The single lane road going to the parking of Ingkumhan falls is roughly around 300 meters(Another guess). When you get there, there'll be a person staying in an open booth, asking you to pay for the fees and fill out a blue book
After that, there'll be a flight of stairs going down to the falls, takes probably around 5 minutes to do downhill. It was not too dangerous, too steep, or slippery to me since it was concreted."

"Dimiao is a known town in Bohol with its famous water falls and attracts several tourists both local and foreign.
In order to make it there, you need to traverse an estimated 300 staircase and a single ramp with it.
A good habit to get yourself ready for this small adventure is getting warmed up beforehand, this will help your body adapt to a sudden change of terrain.
A local tourist hut will welcomes you before entering to the falls with an amount of 20 per head for entrance fee.
Advisable to have scooter and motorcycles for easy parking. The space to park four wheeled vehicles might nit be convenient option. But regardless what type of vehicle, as long as you can maneuver well, that would not be a problem.
Best time to come early in the morning and late in the afternoon during hot and summer days! Advisable to visit during this time since rainy seasons will bring some small floods in the area resulting the water not as crystal blue. As you can see on my photo it’s a bit brownish because a night before there was a heavy rain.
It is noteworthy to bring some fun snacks with you and water for a quick refreshments with this kind of outdoor activity.
Hence, a visit to this place is not bad as you think. Tour guides, not necessarily needed since it’s easygoing."
