There’s no doubt that the mountainous region of Cordillera is one of the best places in the Philippines for cross country mountain biking. Its trails, off roads, ascends and down slopes are haven for riders who love surprises and challenges. Challenges that are rewarded with the unparalleled beauty… of breathtaking rice terraces and endless horizon of greens, of warm hospitality of the mountain people, and of the overall experience that will definitely turn into one of, if not your most memorable bike adventure.

In our tradition of exploring Cordillera by bikes, we once again ventured into the highland and spent four days and three nights discovering the offbeat trails and hidden wonders of the mountain and its people. Not minding the 10 hours of delay as we got stranded in Nueva Vizcaya, we pedaled from Banaue to Bontoc, Tinglayan and Tabuk for another ride that is truly one for the books.
