The ecotourism, adventure, falls and glamping capitalCavinti, Laguna

IT'S hard to believe that there's a place south of Manila blessed with mountain lakes and waterfalls. Where people are warm and hospitable, always ready to share their rich heritage and colorful past. Where nature's bounty continues to provide fresh produce that nourishes the body and warms the soul. This place is Cavinti, Laguna, and it only takes two to three hours to experience this paradise.

The name 'Cavinti' originated from the original inhabitants of the place, the Aetas. During wedding rituals, Aeta grooms captured the brides by holding onto their legs, or 'kapit the binti.' This phrase later evolved into 'Kabinti' and eventually became the name of the place, according to legend.
