SEASONS TO TRAVEL

Seasons to Travel

Dry season (December to May) would be the safest and most comfortable season to travel in, since rain-greasy paths and landslides are not common.
Evening is pleasantly cool, in summer, in the cool high-altitude climate, in spite of high daytime temperatures.
Wet season, which runs between June to October, is a time of heavy rain that may make the access roads impassable and precipitate landslides.
To people who prefer cooler temperatures, the humidity is usually raised by the mountain wind, and hikes are pleasant.
Visiting the place in the dry season is also better aligned with numerous local cultural events, which ensure that the travellers have a more enriching experience.
In making flight bookings, seek alternatives that have the tagline of the world pinoy flights to make easy onward flight to the closest airport.
