FIRST MINOR CLIMB
SEPTEMBER 15-16, 2012
Elevation: 2178 ASL
Location: Ternate, Cavite / Nasugbu, Batangas
Pico de Loro is the highest point in Cavite. It is situated in the boundary of Cavite and Batangas. It rewards climbers with the view of the Manila Bay and the Mountains of Batulao and Talamitam on the other side. The peak is called “Parrot’s Peak” due to the shape of the summit that is parrot shaped. The other story is that it was named Pico de Loro because of the parrot bird that local encounters during food hunt.
