Yung terminal, malapit sa may market, if hindi niyo mahanap, mababait naman yung mga tao dun so magtanong na lang kayo. Travel time is about 30 minutes and fare is Php 25.00.

Twice na ako nagpunta sa Maligcong and dito ako lagi nag-stay. Sobrang bait kasi ni Ate Vilma and siya na bahala sa inyo pag dating niyo dun. Sa accommodation and sa food. If may plans kayo mag hike sa Mt. Fato and/or Mt. Kupapey siya na rin bahala sa guide niyo.
Accommodation: Php 350

Masarap yung food and may free unli coffee and tea pa! Aalagaan ka talaga niya sa buong stay mo dun. Malapit pa sa rice field yung bahay nila.
