Itinerary description
A nice walk around the village of Railaco. The first part of the trail is parallel the main road, but over the ridge of the mountain. After about 1/3 of the walk, you cross the main road and follow a dirt road through a few small villages. The last 1/3 of the trail follows small tracks down to the village.

Did this hike in March (wet season) in reverse - overall its a nice walk, but there is a part where you have to cross a watercourse ( -8.629073° , 125.419180°) which is almost impassable (no path, thick bush, mud) so be warned. Also, if doing this trail in reverse, do not follow the GPS trail up a small stream at the beginning (after crossing the large riverbed), go slightly further west and head up a path to some houses to reach the ridge-line. Overall I'd recommend this walk for the dry season only.
