MOUNT ULAP

Ampucao, La Trinidad, Benguet

Mount Ulap Eco-trail showcases the best of what the Cordilleras has to offer. Pine and grassland
ridges with stunning views of the mountains, and even a glimpse of culture with villages, burial
caves, and hanging bridges. Mt. Ulap Eco-Trail in Itogon, Benguet is the perfect day hike
spanning around 8 kilometers through several peaks along the Ampucao-Sta. Fe Ridge. It is easy
enough to be completed from 4-6 hours, making it feasible as a dayhike or even a half-dayhike
for hikers of all levels. A number of peaks and points of attraction are traversed via this relaxing
trail: from the grassland slopes of Ambunao Paoay to Gungal Rock, and then to the highest point,
Mt. Ulap. The descent from Mt. Ulap to Pong-ol Burial Caves has its steep, pine-forested terrain.
The Burial Caves are a nice attraction, and at Sta. Fe there are hanging bridge and cemented
footpath that complete the experience. Want to experience this hike? What are you waiting for?
