Bakun Trio

One of the hidden gems in the Cordillera region, "Bakun Trio" refers to the three mesmerizing mountains which are situated in the town of Bakun, Benguet and envelopes the Poblacion that also serves as the jump-off point for the three.

Each mountain has a distinct characteristic, trail class, surrounding view and level of difficulty. It is composed of Mt. Lubo which is the highest among the three and is also the easiest to climb. Mt. Tenglawan has the longest trail to reach the summit with it's famous "Carrot Peak", it also have Limatiks in some parts of the trail.  And last but not the least is Mt. Kabunian which is believed to be the home of god "Kabunyan" and for me, this is the most challenging among the three. It requires some serious rock scrambling that resembles "Batangan" of Kibungan making it not suitable for the faint-hearted.

I will blog my detailed write-up for Tenglawan, Kabunian and Lubo next month.
