Although my brother and I didn't plan to visit Suyo, it suddenly became an interesting place the first time we entered the town. I said, "Suyo is awesome!"

» The inviting scenes along the winding mountain trail are a breath of life. They're all free.

» A motorbike stroll along this serene mountain trail made me realize it was a blessing to be able to experience the wonders made by God!

In 2010, I started this journey without any idea what Suyo town has to offer. But I had heard about the Suyo Mountain Resort from a mutual friend who lives there and happens to be studying here in ▼ VIGAN
.

When I was still a campus journalist back in college, my senior editors wanted me to go to Suyo to feature their coffee plantation as an industry. Regardless, my trip to Suyo was an accident.

Like ▼BAGUIO
and Cervantes, pine trees also abound in this town. The inviting scenes along the winding mountain trail are a breath of life. They're all free, and you will surely enjoy them. You have to take the ▼TAGUDIN
-Cervantes-Sabangan Highway (Mountain Trail) to reach Suyo. The latter road will connect you to the Halsema Highway in the ▼CORDILLERA
Region.

The air is cool. Bring a jacket, a long-sleeved shirt, or a sweatshirt because you will need them. This was the first time I had seen a highway with this kind of scenery, so don't think I'm over-hyping the place—this is really what I felt the first time I traversed this road. A motorbike stroll along this serene mountain trail made me realize what a blessing it was to be able to experience the wonders made by God! Bessang Pass in Cervantes is the highest elevation of any highway system in ▼ILOCOS SUR
.

In Brgy. Man-atong, there is a municipal resort. Sadly, we were unable to get inside because an event was going on. You have to climb several flights of stairs to get to the resort, as it is located atop a hill.

Well, the joyride was really fun. I suggest using either a bicycle or a scooter to feel the cool breeze and fully enjoy the beautiful view! Our scooter carried us so far.
