The Pangilatan Waterfalls Ecotourism Park is composed of a main waterfalls which has a water drop off of about 81 ft., countless mini-falls whose water drop offs are between less than a foot to as high as 7 ft., the total length of which is at least 3.5 kms and could go as far as 8 kms and a viewing area on the highest point of Barangay Artuz.

From here, one could see the rolling hills and mountains of Tapaz and neighboring towns as far as Calinog, Iloilo in the south and Libacao, Aklan in the north. The hills could rival the famous chocolate hills of Bohol.  Read More:  http://philippinewaterfalls.blogspot.com/2011/10/pangilatan-waterfalls-in-capiz.html

Situated in Sitio Agmalasogi, Pangilatan Falls is a series of waterfalls with its main cascade dropping to a height of approximately 30 feet into a deep natural basin. The Provincial Government of Capiz once claimed that it is the most beautiful waterfalls in Panay that they developed the place into an eco-park, the trail was cleared and cottages were built. But Super Typhoon Yolanda changed the course of this once popular natural tourist attraction. Read More: http://www.lakwatsero.com/spots/pangilatan-falls-the-forgotten-gem-of-tapaz-capiz/

Pangilatan Falls is tucked in a lush vegetation deep into the forested mountains of Tapaz. From the sitio where we parked the motorcycle, it was just a ten-minute walk on rolling hills. Then we had to descend through an unfinished concrete path and a steep steel staircase.
The waterfall stands at about 25 meters. Days before my visit, it rained hard in Tapaz that’s why the water was a bit murky. Otherwise, it would have been great to plunge into its fresh waters and cool off for a while. According to the driver, the pool that Pangilatan Falls formed is so deep that so far only one person was able to reach the bottom. Maybe, it was better I did not.
There used be cottages in Pangilatan Falls. But eventually, it was either destroyed or neglected. Come summer time though, the falls drew flock of tourists and nature trippers. Because it has a wide, deep basin, it can accommodate them all. Also, I heard that there are other tiers near the main waterfall.    Read More:  http://harrybalais.com/2013/09/chasing-waterfalls-pangilatan-falls/
