Is it safe for a foreigner to go hiking up Mt. Apo? Which places in Davao should foreigners avoid?

the last time i heard of death of mouth climbers in mt apo was when someone got drowned because he took a dip on a lake and it was freezing cold, he had hypothermia. it's certainly one place to avoid and one activity to avoid doing. other than that, i think it's unsafe to trek during rainy seasons from june-november coz trekking would be perilous. i have one suggestion, try mt kanlaon/canlaon in ****** occidental. it's an active volcano actually and trekking there has been banned the past years due to dangerous volcanic activity but i heard it's the most beautiful mountain to climb. almost 8000 feet. apo is 9000 feet +

It's safe if you have your own Body guards... i do have one last time... i carry only my water bottle and some candy... my body guard and my group did some heavy lifting...it's not bad especially your conquier all the way to the top... i have a lot of fan. enjoying the cooldiest part of the mountain... try to go the part of kidapawan city to get start for hiking.. that's the best place so that you can go to AGCO first...you can experience a lot of stuff from there ...

well theres this haunted street in cebuyan, it was the home of malate trees, home of aswangs, and capres, rumor has it that your car stops working right in the middle of the street, and they run right in front of your car, its just a rumor though, i would go if i were you..

Safe, unless they're with Apo Hiking Society. or Safe, unless you get lost and find yourself in the MILF camp. (Moro Islamic Liberation Front) ha, not the Mother I.L.F thing. Just Avoid places with signs like: Private Property, Do Not Enter, or Beware of Dogs with two heads, or "Bawal Pumarada on Both Side" Do not Block the Ambulance. or Deep Excavation Do not Enter. or Building Closed for Demolition.

Just get a guide to take you.
