Bulusan Volcano Natural Park is a mystical reservation centered around Lake Bulusan, nested peacefully at the foot of the prominent, active Bulusan Volcano.

A serene, biodiverse sanctuary referred to as the ‘Switzerland of the Orient’ due to its cool alpine-like breeze and lush surrounding pine-tropical forests. Visitors can enjoy kayaking or stand-up paddleboarding across the glasslike emerald-green lake, take a leisurely stroll along the 360-degree concrete boardwalk around the shore, or hike up forest trails inside Sorsogon’s rich mountain reserve.
