Mount Pulag via Akiki Trail - 4/2/2022

[@bundokerongmaniniyot]

nice desisyon na nag summit kayo. ganda ng rainbow sa summit kahit wala gaanong clearing. sad naman sa ibang kasama na di nag summit. ingat!.

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Yes sir, since nandoon naman na kami and 30 minutes lang summit na. First time ko rin makakita ng rainbow sa Pulag since 4th time ko na. Yun lang talagang hindi kinaya ng mga kasama namin yung lamig dahil talagang binagyo kami ng around 3 AM.

[@JunCTravelAdventure]

The best boss thank you for sharing

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Welcome and salamat din sir sa pag appreciate 🙏.

[@goingavgeek]

Mukhang ang hirap ng trail pero ang ganda ng mga view. 💯

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Yup, physically challenging for beginners ang Akiki kaya tagged as the "Killer Trail". Kaya kailangan ng proper preparation bago umakyat dito 😊.

[@mylala3578]

Meron po water source ang akiki trail?

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Meron mam, di ko lang nasama sa video. Meron sa Campsite at sa trail malapit sa century tree, bago mag grasslang ng Mt. Pulag. Sasabihan naman kayo ng guide kung sakali.

[@kwjan]

Saan po mas mahirap sa Akiki or sa Tawangan trail?

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Hello. Di ko po alam dahil ko pa nasubukan ang Tawangan Trail. Basta ang sabi mas malayo at may matek sa trail na yun.

[@LKd459]

Wow nice place!

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

It was!

[@maraerial]

Nagmayat ni... Haan ko kaya ata trail nga ata.. newbie ak lang.. ambangeg ak pay lang.. hehehehehe

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Hehe wen sir, then prepare to lang like jogging bago mag Akiki 😁👍.

[@Atarah-uh6dm]

Ano pong mas mahirap, Pulag via Akiki or Apo via Sta. Cruz Trail? Thanks po.

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Base po sa personal experience ko. Same lang ang difficulty. 😁👍

[@Atarah-uh6dm]

@@AbrenianAdventurer Ohh. Thanks po. Need paghandaan talaga ang Akiki kung ganyan. Hehe.

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

@@Atarah-uh6dm Hehe kaya yan 😁. Sa start ng Akiki lang yung mahirap, around 2 to 3 hours assault.

[@ellatan8363]

Hi there, loved your vlog. Could you kindly give a list of "must haves" for the akiki trail? I'm planning on joining it next month. I did the Ambangen trail 4 times already. I really want to try the Akiki trail. Thank you

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Good day! Things to bring: 1. Waterproof tents. 2. Flashlights 3. Poncho/raincoats 4. Cooked food/You may cook in the camping areas. On our last hike we are advised not bring raw meat to avoid the spread of flies. Pack light! Be physically fit. Jog 1 to 2 times a week before the hike.

[@ellatan8363]

@@AbrenianAdventurer Thank you so much. I go to the gym 6 times a week and also do circuit training. Maybe I'll start jogging though. I hope that will be enough. :)

[@zoniakaterecio9401]

I love your vlog

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Thank you so much 😊🙏.

[@jovitamanalo2707]

Hi sir, thanks for sharing. Ask ko lang po anong months kayo nag hike sa Pulag? Checking lang Anong advisable months umakyat. Thank you!

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Last April 2022 itong video mam. Pina ka-advisable to hike Mt. Pulad is dry season. Nov-March. Paswertehan lang talaga sa sea of clouds. Naghike ako dati ng May, pero maganda naman ang sea of clouds.

[@jakeriot69]

February

[@arikdeguzman8194]

nice hike sir. interested on hiking via akiki, pwede mag pa refer sa guide? all the way from mindanao here :D

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Hello good day! Yung DENR Office po sa Bokod, Benguet ang mag-aassign kasi ng guides and porters. Kailangan po magpaschedule dahil no to walk-ins. Pakicontact na lang po office nila. Ang alam ko rin po is closed pa sa ngayon ang Akiki Trail dahil sa mga landslides sa recent earthquake.

[@mop123ify]

Ano'ng physical preparation po ginawa nio bago umakyat? Jogging? Bike? Weekly akyat?

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Good day mam, nagjojogging po kami regularly, 2 to 3 times a week.

[@chrisarnelmarquez7191]

Mag Apo kna din sir. Traverse Magpet trail. The longest trail.

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Yes sir! Hopefully maka-akyat kami ng Mt. Apo after ng break.

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Yes sir! Hopefully maka-akyat kami ng Mt. Apo after ng break.

[@edkristen274]

Anong medical certificate kailangan para makaakyat sa akiki sir?

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Detail ng BP at naka-indicate na "fit to climb"

[@airanicoleluceropanague2436]

Subrang lamig po ba talaga? Like magka hypothermia ka po?

[@airanicoleluceropanague2436]

Subrang malakas po ba talaga hangin? Compare Mt. Apo po

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Yup. Ang lakas kasi ulan at hangin ng 3 AM kaya ilang hours na kaming babad sa lamig.

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Maganda yung weather noong nag Mt. Apo kami. Swertehan lang minsan ang hiking 😁👍.

[@madj7152]

Di ka naman magkakahypothermia jan. Baka sa everest pa. 😂

[@xuchuoho1383]

I'm a Taiwanese planning to hike there around Aug It's ur Mother Mountain for the fourth time Did u need to hire a tourist guide Can you share about how to apply and the fee list

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Hello good day. I always join an organized tour by a travel agency to save money. That is around 8 to 12 hikers who are to share the expenses for transportation(van) from Baguio City(hometown) and other fees for guide and porter, entrance and environmental fees. We hike as a group and it will cost each around P3, 000 to P5,000. It will cost more for fewer number hikers per group. I suggest that you shoud try to be joiner to cut the expenses and might gain some friends. For Ambangeg Trail(easy trail), no medical certificate required unlike the other trails.

[@itsjoyoms4947]

Assault po ba from the start to the campsite or may area naman na makakapag rest dn kahit papano?

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

May part naman mam na medyo flat pero saglit lang. Pero from the campsite, halos wala ng assault hanggang summit.

[@ralphamparado6118]

Hi mga ilang Araw pp kayo sa trail?

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Day 1-Nagstart kami ng 10 AM nakarating sa Akiki Camp Site ng 4 or 5 pm. Day 2 - Nagstart ng 1 AM, nakarating sa Summit ng 6 AM. Then 8 AM nakarating na sa Ambangeg Ranger Station.

[@ralphamparado6118]

Thankyou po more adventure to u sir

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

@@ralphamparado6118 Salamat 😊🙏

[@grindelwald_5306]

so ang akiki trail pala ay para lang sa mga sakalam? at yung ambangeg trail ay para sa mga beginner? madedeadz pala ako dyan mahina ako sa akyatan haha

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Hahaha, kailangan lang 1 month or less na jogging/exercise. The term "Killer Trail" is a little exaggerated. Kaya yan hehe.

[@supermirabi02]

Wow! Anong vlogging camera po ang gamit niyo? Salamat!

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

GO Pro 7(Black) mam 😊.

[@lovelysantiago3576]

Hello po, can you share po a legit travel & tours for this trip (if meron po)?

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Hello mam, sa ngayon, close ang Akiki Trail at bihira ang nag oorganize sa trail na yan. Karamihan sa Ambangeg Trail. FB pages of organizers: RDR Vantures, Brownskie's Lakbay Ventures, The Northern Nomads, yan po mga pwedeng mapagtanungan, Baguio based po.

[@jeeranalmendrala8290]

14 hours na puro assault grabi ung pinag daanan namin sa akiki trail.

[@AbrenianAdventurer]

Challenging talaga sir hehe. Pero sana nagkaroon kayo ng clearing sa summit hindi gaya namin na binagyo 😅.

[@jakeriot69]

[@AbrenianAdventurer]
