Chocolate Hills Conservation Trek

year-round; brownest Mar–Apr

The 1,268+ conical limestone formations of the Chocolate Hills are UNESCO-nominated — and the conservation program now offers guided eco-trails where proceeds go to local farmers and single-use plastics are prohibited on the trail. The trek through the mounds is more interesting than the grandstand view. Tip: the grasses turn chocolate-brown only in dry season (Mar–Apr); at other times they're lush green — equally photogenic, just different.
