The Batad High: How far will you go for an epic adventure?

Word on the backpacker's grapevine says that Batad is one of those rare glimpses of heaven on earth. A village that used to be a well-kept secret, Batad is neatly tucked away, almost in the shadow of Banaue, its more-familiar neighbor. Take note, though, that the first step for the journey to Batad is COMMITMENT: it's almost a day of bum-numbing rides in buses, jeepneys and what-nots.
