A small, quiet jungle waterfall in San Juan with a deep pool and a rope swing.
Lugnason Falls is a compact waterfall in Barangay Napo, San Juan, on the western side of Siquijor. Water drops about 10 metres over a mossy rock wall into a deep, cool pool framed by jungle. A rope swing and a couple of ledges make it a favourite for swimming and jumping, and it is usually far less crowded than Cambugahay Falls, so early mornings can be almost empty.
