About This Place
Naparil–Cantalina Falls
A Twin Waterfall Experience in Amlan
The Naparil–Cantalina Falls are two closely connected waterfalls located in the highlands of Brgy. Silab, Amlan, Negros Oriental.
These falls are part of the same river system, and visitors typically explore both in a single trip:
Naparil Falls – the first cascade you’ll encounter
Cantalina Falls – the main waterfall just a few meters upstream
Naparil Falls is known for its massive boulder formation (“paril”) that resembles a natural wall, while Cantalina Falls features a more open and scenic cascade.
