Itinerary description
|
Very short stage, with little difference in level, very little traffic and very good roll, because it is all encircled. It passes through rural landscapes, between rice fields and small villages of peasants. Quezon is a small fishing town that is quite outcast, with a lively market and without many tourist infrastructures, apart from a couple of basic pensions but clean and welcoming. We stayed at the Echague pension (200 pesos per person, about € 3.5). Very close to Quezon, about 10 or 12 km away there are the caves of Tabon, an authentic archaeological jewel, because it was discovered remains of Tabon's man, more than 22 thousand years ago, and also of a range of tools over 47 thousand years, considered the remains of older human evidence found throughout the Philippines. It is an excellent complement to this short stage.

Etapa fàcil i de bon pedalar que salta de la costa est de l'illa de Palawan a la oest, més remota, autèntica i interessant per al ciloturisme. Salut!!
