Trail Description:
You start off with a paved road from JY Square, Lahug then climbing the Nivel Hills and further to the Busay Range. You will hit the pitstop at Willy's (about 30 mins from the start) somewhere in Busay around 700 ft elevation. From Willy's, you can proceed to several options along the way: the nearest is about 150 meters from Willy's, then turn right down to Budlaan, a nice downhill rough road ride. From Budlaan, you have a choice whether to go up to Baogo then Tagaytay down to Pulang Bato or proceed to exit to Sunny Hills, Talamban.
You have the choice to go further, a little beyond Garahe, you may turn left to RCPI Road, a sudden steep short climb then a rolling road all the way to the Transmitter Stations. The view here of Cebu City is great. You may proceed from here down to Babag Uno (Transcentral Highway).
If you want to go beyond Garahe (RCPI Road), you may proceed to Bu-ak (the crest of the Main Road before going down further to Babag) twenty minutes from Willy's. From Bu-ak, you may turn right to Tops, the highest accessible peak in Busay Range (about 1500 ft) or you may take the right turn nearby that will lead you to a short dual track trail that will bring you to on top of a clearing with a 360 deg view from the city to the Ayala Heights development. Bu-ak is good enough for a weekend climb to loose a good number of fats and calories. You can come back through the Main Road back to Lahug in 15 mins, a good downhill adrenaline rush.
Still if you have the rest of the day to burn fats and enjoy good air and view, you proceed beyond Bu-ak down to Babag Uno and Dos then further up to Ayala Heights (a good 45 mins ride). From there, you proceed down to Guba, i highly recommended downhill dirtroad ride all the way to Pulang Bato then exit to Talamban.
If you are the explorer type, there are a good number of unexplored technical trails along the way.
