Trekking in Batad

From Philippines

Yesterday we spent the whole day trekking in the little tribal village of Batad and the surrounding Cordillera mountains. Here are a few pictures from that wonderful (though oh so tiring :) ) day.

Oma pikka matka alustasime mae otsast, kuhu soitsime jeepneyga. Meil oli kaasas ka giid, kes naitas teed ja jutustas kohalikust elust. Koigepealt laskusime labi dzungli alla Batadi kulla.

  1. The landscapes are so incredibly beautiful here. The green reeds, the rice terraces, and the wonderful contours of the mountains covered in forest.

    I'm guessing Batad was still part of the Banaue rice terraces?

    Thanks so much for sharing. Much Metta!
