Google map is showing 2 routes :
1. Bagabag - Cordon - Aglipay - Dipaculao route = 264kms, 6hrs 10mins
2. Solano - Bambang - San Jose City - Pantabangan route = 281kms , 6hrs 51mins
It's just a matter of 21kms difference yet 41 minutes difference.
Question is which route is smooth & safest ?

Both are ok. Except for some portions, especially before and after bridges .. rough patches of road. And there's a long portion on Alfonso Castaneda, also a rough stretch. This was about two years ago pa. Maybe they fixed it already .. election season ..
Picturesque? Pantabangan ... I thinkl ..

Down to San Jose, bro,- maganda ang daan.... Crossing the Sierra Madre is already an adventure... The lugawan at Sta Fe is always fulfilling... Pantabangan is scenic.......
The way going through Aglipay,- am not sure... Have not been on those roads...
Wala na bang magigiting ng mga tao riyan sa bundok?
Enjoy the drive, bro!

The roads are ok (smooth mix of concrete and tarmac) in Pantabangan, with wide run-offs, aside from the rough patches, I earlier mentioned.
Safe? During the daytime, its ok. Vehicle traffic is regular. However, I would not recommend driving on these roads after dark.

April 17th, 2016 01:23 PM #9For safety, I would prefer route 2. This route pass through towns, you could travel anytime.
Route 1 is better for the adventurer, but it passes through Quirino province to Aurora. I will not venture along these route unless necessary. Pinakadelikado is from Maddela to Aurora. Puro bundok, para lang sa mahilig sa magagandang tanawin at malalakas ang loob.
