1. Malatan-og Falls
Malatan-og falls in brgy. Kumaliskis is one of the well-known gems of Don Salvador Benedicto. You can take a closer look and enjoy the view of the falls via hiking; that would take an hour estimate. A few portions of the trek are a bit steep, so be careful and ensure you are wearing shoes or sandals with a good grip. In the meantime, you'll be rewarded with the enormous view you got. You can also stop just along the highway, which is the Viewing Deck of malatan-og falls. The place offers a spectacular view overlooking the Malatan-og waterfalls. If you want to take a good shot of the falls from the viewing deck, you can use your telephoto lens or fly your drone.
2. An enormous area of pine trees
The place for the beautifully-grown pine trees lined the main thoroughfares of about 1.7 kilometer stretch of road from Barangay Igmayaan to Poblacion proper, which gained recognition as a well-maintained place. You can definitely smell the fresh scent of mother nature once you are in the pine trees' middle. This place is considered a peaceful tourist spot, where you can meditate and take every breath with nature. The property is privately owned but is fortunately open to the public for free. Hopefully, they accept visitors who want to do a picnic.
