This mountain found in Sibuyan Island,is the highest peak in Romblon and considered to be among the more formidable mountains in the country. Wild and unexplored,Mt.Guiting-Guiting presents a challenge to seasoned climbers. Rising a little more than 6,000 feet above sea level,its rugged terrain never fails to lure mountaineers to scale its peak; the sheer jagged peak rises 2,075 meters above sea level. The summit provides a magnificent view of the entire island and neighboring Romblon and Marinduque. Wild ferns,orchids,and bonsais dot the rugged trails. Hiring an experienced guide during a climb is a must.
