Bato Springs - Laguna

Located on the outskirts of San Pablo City in the province of Laguna, Bato Springs is the perfect getaway near Manila on a hot summer day.

Bato Springs Details

Prior to my visit, I have only seen the sign of Bato Springs Resort every time we head to southern Luzon. I have never thought of googling it or asking about it because it always slips my mind. (promise) If not for my cousin's birthday, I would have missed the chance of visiting it FOREVER. (Ok, that's overacting on my part.) 

Welcome to Bato Springs

Join the herd...

...or swim in small groups.

Bato Springs is quite a popular tourist destination for locals in San Pablo City, Laguna. However, just to share, when we visited last 2014 we used Google Maps and were surprised to discover that we were sent to the wrong location in the middle of the bustling city.

Make sure you bring your friends or family members

The more the merrier

Thanks to the locals we managed to reach the resort after almost an hour of being lost. (UPDATE: The location of Bato Springs is now fixed in Google Maps.)

The water's cold you'd enjoy it on a hot summer day!

Swim through different tiers of springs...

...or rest in one of the rental kubo...

...or simply enjoy the outdoors...

Speaking of locals, Bato Springs is so popular that once you reach the springs you'd be shocked to see that there are hundreds of locals and tourists in the water, especially during summer.

What I like most about Bato Springs are its cold waters. (Not suitable for drinking though.) Aside from that, I also like the ambiance of the place. Despite the number of people and the springs being renovated for safety purposes. (Short of saying it's man made-ish) Bato Springs still never failed to bring out my love for nature. So let me invite you and your friends to enjoy the cold spring waters of Bato Springs.

Why visit Bato Springs?

Bato Springs is a must-visit destination if you want to escape to stay for the night in San Pablo City, Laguna. It's one of the most affordable places to stay in. It's also good for day trips, however, just a heads up, expect that there are plenty of people here, especially during the summer.

Getting to Bato Springs:



If you're bringing your own car
, you can use Google Maps and Waze. If you don't have these apps then follow the instructions below.

Look for that sign!

  1. Don't go to the town proper of San Pablo City. Use the diversion road instead. It will save you a lot of time and gas. 
  2. After passing through the diversion road, drive straight a few more kilometers and look for the Meralco building at the driver's side. (If you're coming from Manila) It serves as the nearest landmark. 
  3. Once you spot the building, slow down and look for the Bato Springs sign also located on the driver's side.
  4. Once you see the sign, turn left and follow the road for several kilometers until you see the second Bato Springs sign. 
  5. Follow the road being directed by the second sign until you reach the springs.
If you're commuting, ask the conductor if they know Bato Springs in San Pablo City.

If they do, then you're in luck. They will drop you off at the first Bato Springs sign. From there ride a tricycle which will take you to the second sign. You could also ride a jeepney heading to Dolores, Quezon. You may choose to ride another tricycle to bring you to the springs or just simply walk the rest of the way. 

If they don't, then ask the conductor to drop you off at San Pablo City town proper. From there ride a jeepney heading to Dolores, Quezon. Board down at the second sign. From there you may choose to ride a tricycle to the springs or walk the rest of the way.

Bus from Cubao to San Pablo: P120-150
Jeep to Bato Springs: P40-50

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. From Imus?
      Hmmm. Ang alam kong pinakamalapit eh sa Starmall Alabang. Unless may mga van or buses na diyan na papuntang Lucena pero I doubt meron.

      Punta ka sa The District, sakay kayo ng papuntang Alabang.

      If wala multicab to SM Molino then transfer the van or multicab to Starmall Alabang.

  16. Hi! What if po my origin is Starmall Albang. My question is: 1. Ano po sasakyan ko? Bus? or Van? (depende po kung alin po sa dalawa ang makakatipid) and ano po signboard? 2. How much po kaya between the two? 3. Saan po bababa? sa may papuntang Dolores, Quezon din po? and last 4. paano po pag uwian na? saan po may malapit papuntang alabang? Thank you very much

    ReplyDelete

    1. 1. Bus is usually cheaper but vans are faster. Sakay ka ng Lucena bound. Tapos tell the conductor to drop you off the papuntang Dolores.
      2. Yung bus naglalaro sa 130 -150 vans mga halos ganun din.
      3. Paguwian na sakay ka ng Jeep o trike papunta ng Highway. May mga buses na dun papuntang Alabang.
