Tanawin Sa Gulod Serves Bulalo Right At Your Camp Site Overlooking The Taal Lake

Tanawin Sa Gulod campsite in Tagaytay City


Tagaytay has always been a quick escape from the fast pace of big cities, and now that we can enjoy travel and leisure again, Tanawin sa Gulod is one of the many campsites near Metro Manila you should definitely visit.

Ideal for low-key date nights and spontaneous road trips, Tanawin Sa Gulod primarily operates as a restaurant that serves quintessential Tagaytay food selections such as bulalo and crispy tawilis.

The camping area faces an unobstructed view of the Taal Lake and is just behind the main structure of the restaurant.

You can enjoy the cool Tagaytay climate and be amazed by the sunrise and sunset over Taal Lake – start by pitching a tent (P500, ~USD9.77) or camping in your vehicle (P1,000, ~USD19.54) any time since the spot is open 24/7.

However, you must note that spaces are on a first-come, first-served basis.


Enjoy restaurant meals while camping

After setting up camp, you can walk a few meters to the restaurant to dine in or have your food brought to you to enjoy it outdoors. And a plus for caffeine enthusiasts – they offer free coffee at breakfast.

Some of the dishes Tanawin sa Gulod serves are silog meals (meat, egg, fried rice combo), bagnet kare-kare (twice-fried pork belly in peanut sauce), bulalo (stewed beef shank and marrow), and cripsy tawilis (fried freshwater sardines).


Convenient camping for the whole family

Those who would love to come with their pets, young kids, and older relatives don’t need to worry about accessibility because there’s no hiking or walking on any rough terrain to get to the campgrounds.

There are also two toilets and baths where campers can shower and answer the call of nature.
