6 Day Budget DIY Solo Trip in Baguio City (Pre-Christmas December 2024)

Chill Pre-Holiday Adventure in Baguio City, Philippines December 13 to 19, 2024


This trip served as my 4th visit, where my 1st visit happened last 2003 for my College Educational Tour, the reason why I brought my family was because I was mesmerized by Baguio city's beauty. Also, the main reason why I came back is because of my 1st Ultra Trail Marathon in the Philippines.

Baguio City is located at an altitude of 1,450 meters above sea level on the Cordillera Administrative Region in the middle of the island of Luzon, in the Philippines. Due to its cool mountain weather, Baguio is considered the summer capital of the Philippines. Because of its many pine trees it is also called the City of Pines. In October 31, 2017, it became part of UNESCO’s Creative Cities Network, the first city in the Philippines to join the list.
