If there is one thing you should definitely not miss in Subic Bay Freeport, it is the nature tour at the Pamulaklakin Trail. I took the tour. Several days later I visited the Aeta Tribal Village.
The trail is situated along the road to the Binictican housing complex. It is a little obscure and there is a big chance you would miss it on your first pass if you are not paying attention. Once in, you might not find the compound distinct from any park or place.
What is special is the tour, or more appropriately the lesson that the Aeta guide will give you.
An extended family is seen here waiting for their morning ride to take them to a market to sell their crafts .
A child waiting outside the complex to accompany her mother and extended family, who go daily to a local super market to sell their crafts.Wild honey is one of their special items.
.
Today most Aeta who have been in contact with lowlanders have adopted the T-shirts, pants and rubber sandals .
Example of a tree growing in the jungle.
Using an Aeta guide we walked almost two hours through the jungle and then on to red dirt road.
Along the trail where two boys collecting nuts to use to invent and play games.
Children stop at a family store just to look and possibly day dream about something to eat.
Another dwelling along the trail.
A young girl takes a break from helping her family.
Cycling is a big sport in the Philippines.
I'm assuming that these cyclists were peddling through the village and not residents of the village.
