THE NEW BAKUN FALLEN TREE 🪾

Rising again from what was lost! Thanks to the dedicated efforts of the tour guides of Kabunian, the iconic Bakun Fallen Tree has been replaced and a new one installed once more.
It stays proudly at the original spot, replacing the beloved landmark that was sadly burned during a fire incident last April. Now, visitors can once again come and admire this symbol of resilience and heritage right where it first lay, keeping the story and beauty of Bakun alive.
