Driving Directions from Baguio to Manila via Marcos Highway

30 September 2016

There are three main roads in and out of Baguio: Kennon Road, Palispis Highway (also known as Marcos Highway) and Naguilian Road.  If you're coming from Manila via the SCTEX and the TPLEX, Kennon Road and Marcos Highway are the routes that you can choose to pass through to get to Baguio.  Naguilian Road is ideal if you're passing through the coastal MacArthur Highway.

During our Baguio trip, we drove on Kennon Road to get to Baguio but we were forced to take Marcos Highway on the return trip because Kennon Road was closed for repairs.  Historically, Kennon Road gets closed down most often because of the threat of landslides especially during the rainy season.  It's better to check advisories if you're planning your trip.

Driving Directions to Baguio via TPLEX and Kennon Road

26 September 2016

If you're coming from Manila, the ideal way to start your journey to Baguio is via the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) with Balintawak as your entry point.  We paid P55 at the Toll Gate since we were driving a Class 1 vehicle.  From here to Baguio, you will drive more than 230 kilometers for about 4 hours.  There are many gasoline stations with restaurants, shops and restrooms along the way should you feel the need to refuel, dine, shop or use the restrooms.

Update:  Via Marcos Highway with 2018 Toll Fees
