It is actually a continuous trail between the two trailheads, and the climb towards Pico de Loro summit branches off from the center. The first jump-off point is a spot along the Ternate Hi-way going to Caylabne Bay Resort. Passing by Puerto Azul entrance, this jump-off point has a DENR marker you will never miss within the "magnet" area. It was so called magnet since the hill was claimed to be magnetic wherein your car would continue it’s climb even when the engine is turned off similar to the magnetic hill of Laguna. To get there, catch a bus bound for Maragondon or Ternate Cavite at the Lawton or Liwasang Bonifacio area. Saulog bus line is one bus company who plies the route. Then at Maragondon Cavite, hire a jeep that will take you to the jump-off area. From the jump-off or trailhead, a 2-hour hike will take you to a base camp passing by open fields, farms and grazing lands. Base camp is actually established anywhere or any open fields within the base of the mountain. Set-up camp here. A 45-minute hike to the summit is usually done without the packs. You can actually camp on the summit though it can accommodate only few tents and winds at the summit are usually strong which will continually pound your tents. From base camp to the summit, the climb is very steep but with ample bamboo to hold on. Usually, the trail going to Nasugbu is the one used in going down. Just follow the same trail straight to Barangay Papaya, Nasugbu Batangas. This barrio is accessible from Nasugbu town proper by pump boat or a long jeepney ride along the rough road to Nasugbu. If climbing from this side of the trail, you have to take a bus ride to Nasugbu from Manila (BLTB) and from there arrange transportation for Barangay Papaya.
