Pamulaklakin Forest Trail

Aeta-guided nature trail in the Binictican district, set up by SBMA in part to generate income for local indigenous communities. Ranked the Freeport's #3 attraction on TripAdvisor, 4.3 stars from 247 reviews.

Pamulaklakin runs through forest in the Binictican district and is guided by members of the Aeta community, who lived in this area before it became a US naval base and once trained American servicemen in jungle-survival skills. Subic's Freeport zone holds a formal Certificate of Ancestral Domain Title recognizing Aeta land claims here. SBMA set up the trail partly to generate income for Aeta families, and it's currently the Freeport's third-highest-rated attraction on TripAdvisor.
