Mt.Pulag Summit Climb, Benguet Philippines
Mt. Pulag is currently recorded as the second highest mountain in Luzon. I was really nervous to try this trail out because to be honest hiking is not really my thing and I was born a city girl who is in love with adventure. We got our hiking package again with TRAILADVENTOURS, and we spent…
