On our second day team outing in Zambales, we decided to visit Coto Kidz Pool Mountain Resort right inside Coto mining site in Coto, Masinloc, Zambales. I must say, the rough road was so rough! nakakabaog for it took us almost one hour to reach the resort. But the scenery treated us with irony for there are lush greens and picture perfect views and yet you will also see the environmental impact of mining in the area. It was worth the trip when we reached the resort for it seemed you're in a enchanted place with fresh water flowing down the stream as well as water falls that soothes your stress with the sound of its flowing water.
One can stay overnight and rent an airconditioned cottage for P 1,500. For day trippers, one may rent a cottage right beside the river for P 500. Don't miss the balsa to cross the other side of the river to treat you with more sights and cross the hanging bridge going back.
Again, we rented a van going there so for those who want to commute, I got direction from Yahoo Answers:
Coto Mines
It is known as the nation’s biggest deposit of refractory ore in the world. It is 27 kms of well paved and winding gravel road from barangay baloganon to the camp site and commuted through a transportation concessionaire plying the route coto-baloganon at government controlled fare.
baloganon is about 3 kms from the main national highway. victory liner has buses on that route from manila (about 5 hrs bus ride). From baloganon, it's more than an hour before you reach the kidz swimming pools (coto mines) right at the foot of the forest. It's in the town called masinloc (2 hrs from olongapo).
