Insider tip — Mambucal Hot Springs cascade through lush tropical forest on the lower slopes of Mount Kanlaon, an active stratovolcano in Negros Occidental. The sulfurous waters flow into a series of natural pools bordered by giant ferns and bamboo groves at around 700 metres elevation. The site doubles as a mountain resort and is cooler than the lowland coast, making it popular with Filipino families during the dry season from November to April.
