Tucked in the mountainous highlands of northern Ilocos Sur Province, Northern Luzon Heroes Hill National Park is a serene yet historically rich destination that commemorates the bravery of Filipino soldiers during World War II.
Often bypassed by travelers heading to the famed beaches of Pagudpud town or the heritage city of Vigan, this hidden gem invites visitors to pause, reflect, and reconnect with nature and history.
The park is nestled in the verdant foothills of Santa town in Ilocos Sur Province, and features forest trails, panoramic views, and a tranquil ambiance that contrasts with the story of wartime resistance it honors. Heroes Hill National Park is a meaningful detour for those weaving cultural immersion into their Northern Luzon Region itinerary.
Whether you're tracing the Philippines’ wartime past or simply soaking in its mountain serenity, the park offers a quiet, powerful experience that pairs well with a visit to other northern highlights like Bessang Pass in the municipality of Cervantes, Mount Polis, or the remote Cordillera Region villages in Sagada town.
