  Easy to follow

  Difficult

  I did it today, mostly following your track, but with a few variants at the beginning and the end.
  I liked the scenery and the villages.
  I did it alone and with sandals, both things NOT advisable of course.
  Only for experienced people I would say.
  The paved road from the other side is now reaching really close to the summit, maybe 15’ to go by foot.

  Hi Juralao
  I published my track on Wikiloc under the name “Osmena Peak from Badian”, so you can check my itinerary.
  I used a scooter to get to the beginning of the trail, saving 5km from Badian.
  Then near the summit, following the advice of a local villager, I took a different route saving some time.
  If you really start from Badian near the coast it will not be 6,5km to the top but 11,5 so 23km round trip.

  You need a GPS of course, or otherwise keep asking the villagers which way to the top.
  There’s a lot of vegetation in the middle part of the trail, but the trail can be followed.
  Bring a minimum of one liter of water going up, then once near the summit you can buy some more is a shack store near the trail.
