Mount Apo
2.14-16.2016 Mount Apo (10,311ft ASL), also called "The Rooftop of the Philippines" is the highest mountain in the Philippines. It has many trails but for this hike, we used the Sta.Cruz Trail, coming from Sitio Colan, which for me was the best trail as you will pass by many scenic views. The other two trails that I know of are: 1. Kapatagan trail - one of the most popular trail as well as the most expensive one. Usually, the itinerary for this is 3days/2nights but some can do it just overnight. Jump off point is at Sitio Mainit. 2. Bansalan trail - they say this is the easiest trail and can be done overnight if you are fit enough for this. However, its trail is characterized by immediately steep ascent and an open trail, meaning it will be hotter since you are directly under the sun. Jump off point is at Sitio Pluto. Before going to Mount Apo, you will need to secure your permits and then fill out a registration sheet per person. No one is all
