Hi guys,

Since this is the most recent thread, I'll just post my question here. Will be going to Baguio tomorrow, leaving Manila at around 10am.

Considering my departure, ss this still the best/easiest route to Baguio? Nlex>Sctex(exit to where)>Tplex(exit to where)>McArthur>Kennon (from lowslowbenz

I've read here na pag rainy time, best is to take Marcos highway, due to rocks falling above? Heard from a friend din, non stop rain daw doon, these past few days.

Thank you for your inputs.

*edit- first time driving there pala. actually, first time lalagpas ng Dau. Hahahah.

Correct route. Take SCTEX until the end, upon which it connects to TPLEX. Exit at Urdaneta. Kennon is roughly 15-30 min quicker than Marcos, so take Kennon if the weather isn't rainy tomorrow. There's just a part somewhere in the middle with a bridge under construction so you'll pass through unpaved roads.

Yes it's been rainy in the North the past few days. So play it by ear if you'll take Kennon or Marcos.

Its a breeze going up to Baguio, last long weekend. Took Kennon rd., even though it just stop raining, so its wet condition. Yes, fallen rocks are present. I was driving gingerly, scared of falling rock that might hit us. Hahah.

My first time to pass Kennon as myself driving. In all honesty, its not as hard as I thought it would be, but I still remained confident as anything can happen on the road.

Traffic in Baguio is moderate-heavy in some parts. Finding a parking is tedious. Maybe I'm just conscious that I might get a ticket if I park on this part of the street, but others disregard the No Parking sign, so I have to find a spot where there's no sign, or a parking officer present.

Every night sa Harrison Road just besides. The Grandstand in Burnham they close the road for a night market. They sell all kinds of stuff. Swertehan lang kung mahilig ka mag tingin tingin. Parang divisoria.

Nasa may edge ng Burnham park lang, not too far away from the Mcdo at the bottom of Session Road.
The selections are not as nice as it used to be though... at least the last time we were there.
