Access and permits

Before you go

The city's indexed 2025 charter describes submitting a request letter, valid ID, waiver and medical clearance to ICHAT; City ENRO issues the permit and staff coordinate a local guide. Confirm the current submission channel, lead time, guide arrangements, charges and approval for your chosen trail before travel. This Iriga City process does not establish approval for the catalog trail starting in Buhi; confirm that approach with Buhi as well.

Arrange with: Iriga City ICHAT tourism office and City ENRO

Effort (1-9) is computed from distance, ascent and terrain; technical (A-E) follows the trail class, from a clear path (A) to real climbing (E). Elevations, grades and trail data are indicative - always verify with the LGU / DENR before a climb. Routes come from OpenStreetMap and can be partial or outdated; a mapped line does not prove a safe or open path.

Take Mt. Iriga (Asog) offline

Bundok ng Pinas keeps a personal climb log, records your track with the screen off, saves this mountain's topographic map for use without signal and shows the same access notes on the trail. No account needed.
