No entrance fees, just pull over and take photos. It was a quiet forest though, I feel that wildlife is missing... or its probably just me.

This is a man made forest or the local governments try on reforestation on the road going to Carmen town to see the Chocoloate hills.

It is along the way to Chocolate Hills so your tour driver can just do a short stop to take some pictures. I'm coming from Manila so I rarely see these many trees.
