A wide curtain of water in the forest above Campawan, one of Baganga's best-known falls.
Curtain Falls spreads across a broad rock face in the forest of Barangay Campawan, sending a wide sheet of water into an emerald pool. The last stretch is a rough road followed by a short walk and a river crossing, so most visitors hire a habal-habal from Baganga. Picnic huts sit near the pool, and the site is quiet on weekdays. Heavy rain can make the road and river dangerous.
