If you're looking for an easy adventure Mt. Nagpatong and Tungtong Falls is for you! 

Nagpatong Rock Formation  or Mt. Nagpatong is located at Brgy. Cuyambay, Tanay Rizal.  The name Nagpatong comes from a Tagalog word "patong" or to put it on the top. It composed of two big rocks facing each other (you will climb both or not if you want).

It gained a lot of attention when it was featured in the movie of Julia Barretto and Joshua Garcia "Love You to the Stars and Back" as Mt. Milagros. Since then, many tourist/hikers are attracted to try, go and see Nagpatong as it is accessible in Manila.
