Landingan Viewpoint
About
Sierra Madre ridges as far as you can see! Landingan Viewpoint is a grassy hilltop in Nagtipunan, Quirino's mountain town, reached by a 20-minute climb up rock-lined steps. The views open up almost as soon as you start, and at the top you get a cool breeze and swings facing the mountains. From November to February, flowers cover parts of the hillside. There's barely any shade on the trail, so go early and bring water!
Dry until sunset (5:30 PM). Good time to go!

Know before you go
There is little shade on the trail: bring water, a hat and sunscreen, and start early.
The steps get slippery when wet; skip the climb during typhoons and heavy rain.
Staff may open the entrance later than planned in the early morning, so have a backup stop nearby.
This is a remote mountain area; check with the Nagtipunan tourism office before going and avoid driving after dark.
No current entrance fee published; entrance arrangements and fees change by season, so confirm on arrival. Staff told a June 2026 visitor that drone fees apply during the flower season (November to February).
