Mt. Lubo (Patullok)

Tags: bakun summit lubo
Situated in the town of Bakun, Benguet, Mt Lubo is one of the mountains included in the "Bakun Trio" which refers to the three mesmerizing mountains that are situated in the town of Bakun, Benguet.

Mt. Lubo is the highest among the three which stands at 2087 ft. above sea level and is also the easiest which is ideal for beginners. It is also known as "Mt Patullok" among the locals because it's shape resembles a pointed cone "Patusok". From the jump-off point to the Summit, it has an approximate distance of 4.5 km. which gives a total of 9km distance through the back trail with a total elevation gain of 1700ft to the summit. It passes several communities and vegetable plantations passing through a cemented pathway that eventually leads to the final 400ft slope of Mt Lubo's summit characterized by steep rocky trail and loose soil. Safety railings were put in place to aid hikers during the ascent and most especially during the descent.

The summit offers a 360 degree panoramic view of  Bakun and the surrounding Cordillera mountains.
