Palalan Falls
Also known as Manlumot Falls
Lower Falls
Upper Falls
You can start at the junction of Nestle Road along the National Highway in Tablon. From there, you can hire local motorcycles or ‘habal-habal’ and proceed to Palalan which is a populated community southeast of Nestle factory. If you have a ride, you can go directly to Palalan. Just before Palalan proper, there’s a junction where you can start your trek. Take the southbound road or trail. As shown in the map below, an hour of trekking will lead you to Datu Makapanton’s house where you secure permission.
From the Datu’s house, it’s just a short 10-minute trek to the waterfall site which is a tributary of Umalag River. Here’s a closer look of the map near the waterfall site. (Source)

Inabanga, Bohol
(Source)
Inabanga River of the town of Inabanga was once infested with crocodiles. Every year, since time beyond recall, a human life was lost through attack by a crocodile. The people being superstitious in nature believed that the yearly loss of life was a rental (abang) for the use of the river. Hence the name Inabangan River (Rented River). The Spaniards, however, met difficulty in pronouncing Inabangan, consequently called the place Inabanga. And so it has been to this day.
The town of Inabanga is blessed with natural attractions with rolling terrain, hills and mountains, Inabanga River, the largest river of Bohol, Ilihan Falls and the Macavan Cave. Other attractive sights are the centuries old Inabanga Church which is dedicated to Saint Paul and whose feast day falls on June 30. Getting its share of visitors is the Inabanga Nature Park and Fishing Village. (Source)

Macaban Cave
The cave is found at Inabanga River with its entrance seen just above the water level. Local residents often call the cave “Macaban City Cave”. Superstitions folks believe that the cave is the abode of supernatural beings or engkantos.
Folklore has it that people make lists of things that they needed and would borrow and put the list at the crack of the cave. More often than not, the things listed were found at the opposite bank the next day. This practice stopped though when the people were not conscientious enough to return the things that they borrowed from the engkantos. (Source)
