Route description
The road starts at the junction of Halsema Highway as its eastern terminus. It passes throughout the remaining towns in Mountain Province before entering to the Ilocos Sur province. Its characteristics have numerous hairpin curves, turnpins and steep portions (particularly in Cervantes) along the mountainous route within the Cordillera mountains. Along the way, it provides an access to the Bessang Pass Natural Monument, which is located at the highest elevation of the road before going to the lowlands of the province. The road ends at the junction of Manila North Road in Tagudin.
