MT. BATOLUSONG MOUNTAIN ROCKSTAR
April 09, 2017
3rd Edition
The route of the Mt. Batolusong Mountain Run is a course where you can venture several times in the past that features gorgeous trails, green views, rolling pastures, ridges and deep ravines. The scenery is a perfect spot for taking photos, hiking and of course trail running. Mt. Batolusong is a bit difficult in the beginning (until you reach the Mapatag Plateau), but there are ample stop overs for a breather and catch views of the Sierra Madre Mountains.
Mt. Batolusong is not a tall mountain, but will definitely give you great views of the nearby Mt. Susong Dalaga peak. You can also have sights of Mt. Banahaw and Mt. Cristobal. It also has a couple of spots where elevation can cause you to huff or puff a bit.
