BAGUIO: How to Find the Camp John Hay Eco Trail
Why See the Eco Trail
To experience nature the way "old" Baguio used to be. The pleasure for me is the trek, discovering the trail and being surrounded with large pine trees and the scent of pine cones.

HOW TO FIND THE ECO TRAIL
The entrance of the eco-trail is where the Paintball Republic is located. Paintball Republic is across Le Monet Hotel, along Ordonio Drive.

THE GRAY AREA SHOWN ON THE MAP BELOW IS THE PATH OF THE ECO TRAIL
TOTAL AMOUNT OF TIME SPENT WALKING THE TRAIL with photo stops: 1 hour (for the 1.2 km trail)
My Tip: Don't finish the trail if you don't have someone to pick you up. It's a long walk back to Ordonio Drive, where you entered the trail, about 1.5 km walk along Loakan Road until Le Monet Hotel.
