Heaps of good mountains/ volcanoes to climb. I assume you are/were kiting in Boracay. There is a good climb on Romblon Island nearby, Guiting Guiting (G2), from memory its about 2000m high and takes 2 - 3 days to walk up and back. The Visayas have some other good peaks but I enjoy north Luzon the most, Ifugao, Kalinga and Mountain Province have some good trails/ rice terraces. Check out www.pinoymountaineer.com it has all the info you will need.
