    Mount Costa at Lamtang, La Trinidad is about a 2-hectare where each landscape is different from one another and a good place to clear your mind as you walk through their so called yellow and blue trail. You will feel safe when visiting since @mountcosta requires you to book in advance so they can control the crowd. For ticket options, you can choose between tix only, tix with lunchbox meal, or tix with merienda meal. They offer discount if you're a La Trinidad resident on the tix only option.

    We had the new year's lunch by Naimas. Not worth it. Very limited food choices. No dessert. Overcooked pasta. Served Raw grilled salmon. The place is nice and quiet. With entrance fee. Visit in the morning as there are more tourists in the afternoon. There's a small cafe near the entrance. Limited parking area, though you can park at the roadside. Stroll with your pets.

    If you want to get away from the city buzz and just be one with nature, then this place is for you. The trail between all the beautiful features is amazing and there are tons of rest areas and places to just sit under the beautiful trees. You pay PHP200 at the gate per person or you can pay PHP300 with lunch included. The food is really good and the staff is very friendly. Love this place so I'll give it 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    One of the nicest place we've been to in Baguio. This is a great place to unwind and appreciate nature. There are small restos and picnic areas. Different pocket gardens and activity areas for kids. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes when going here as you're going to walk and go up and down stairs a lot. Relax, unwind, make memories, take photos, and have fun.

    Sooo underrated! It's just a 10 minute drive from the famous Stone Kingdom but this is waaaaay better! The place is huge and really worth every penny! Visit this place when you come to Baguio. Entrance differs if you want it with or without food. We availed the one with lunch @ 300 each. Entered at around 930 am and left at 130. We did the leisure stroll and the 4 hours we spent in the park was really amazing.

    Beautiful garden. Good place to while away the time. Something for everyone, kids and adults alike. Get a guide if there's one available so you don't miss anything. Make sure you wear sturdy shoes with strong traction as the steps can be slippery. Also, in true Baguio fashion, make sure you're prepared to go up and down stairs, don't worry, lots of places to sit and catch your breath.

    Place is refreshing, quick getaway from the city. Child friendly, as there are large spaces for kids to run around. Their playground is also safe. Not much option for food though as there are only 2 kiosks open, but it was okay. You can bring outside food but there is corkage per head, but if you avail their entrance with lunch/snack, not need to oay corkage fee.

    I wish this place is promoted aggressively. It deserves a lot more attention than now. I recommend people dedicate 2 or more hours here. It's more about absorbing the energy of each setting so it's best to take time to stroll and let the scenarios change gradually, as opposed to hurrying to one spot and moving on to the next one. Come to think of it, it's nice that there's weak cell signal here. It encourages people to just be there and be present. There are snack shacks near the entrance, then more near the exit. There are more kid-friendly spots. There are sitting areas scattered around. It's a place for everyone. Why 4 stars? Best you get there with more casual or sporty outfit. Aside from the lack of Wi-Fi and cell signal (which makes sense), there's not a lot of taxi services. I think it would be nice if the management can have cabs stationed in the area. I imagine myself coming to Mt. Costa frequently (maybe with a date) and spend time just hanging out in one scenario, then another on the next visit. I think I'd be able to get a lot more out of the place that way.

    They had a cheaper entrance fee with snacks from Naimas catering which made this 4th time visit a special one. You will enjoy the colorful ornamental plants though lesser flowers compared before. We still enjoyed the gardens and the kids loved the playground ☺️

    This place is a treasure. I go to Baguio to unwind, but normally everything is just too crowded. However, this place is exactly what I'm looking for. Close to nature, they have benches in each garden and you can just choose to sit down and unwind. Order a cup of hot coffee, and just chill. Great place if you're looking to avoid the crowd, enjoy the cold weather, and chill.

    Mount Costa is an underrated place that is a bit far from city proper. It has great international garden concepts that mix well with the surrounding nature. The staff and our tour guide (Ate Phine) are friendly and accommodating. This place is great for nature lovers, families and friends. There are places to hang out and food stalls to eat. So far, this place is one of the best destinations in Baguio. Most importantly, the place is not crowded.

    Mount Costa is a tranquil and beautiful blend of nature conservation and human interaction with mother nature and cultures. The gardens are well-planned and maintained. Walking and climbing from one place to another is easy because of well-placed cement steps and metal bridges. The sculptures are both creative and aesthetically pleasing. They complement the natural beauty of Mount Costa. Highly recommended to visit again and again.

    Commune with nature. Take time to be energized and reflect. Please maintain cleanliness when you go there, as they practice CLAYGO. Watch out for slippery areas. You need to have the map with you. Stop and reflect. *w/ Parking area

    The scenery is breathtaking, even more when the fog came. The ambiance is perfect for relaxation. The food was also worth the money. I specially liked the mirror garden, enchanted garden, and concentric garden. I will recommended this to my friends.

    Mount Costa is a very refreshing and relaxing place. The place depicts what Baguio City used to be. It is wonderful to be one with nature by roaming around the garden and feeling the cold garden breeze while enjoying the amazing view. The place is also a great place to have meditation and conversation with friends and loved ones.

    A very nice place. It's our first time here but it's a very relaxing and therapeutic experience. Thank you, Ate Anne our tour guide for this day. It is a family friendly environment with many beautiful gardens. What I enjoy the most is their musical garden, playground and romeo and juliet. So far it's a cool place to visit and have an interesting garden and beautiful view to see.

    Senior citizen / pet / kid-friendly outdoor experience away from the hustle and bustle (smoke) of Baguio City. Great service, staff is really friendly and well-trained. It was nice and sunny when we arrived, then started to drizzle and get foggy in the middle of the tour. Staff equipped us with transparent umbrellas which made the tour still fun and pleasant. Would recommend!

    First of all, I love the place and the view of the place. In this place, I enjoy the food and the perfect scoop. We have had a good experience in this place. I love the nature and the history of the place. The tour guide is also good for me because of her shared history about the place; his name is Josephine. Thank you.

    The park is like a colorful oasis, with pretty flowers, winding paths, and a peaceful pond. It's a quiet escape where you can enjoy the beauty of nature – birds singing, leaves rustling, and serene landscapes. Perfect for a relaxing stroll or just sitting on a bench, it's a simple yet delightful place to unwind.

    Mount Costa is a recommended place to visit at Baguio City. We had a guided tour with Donna and it took us an hour to finish the tour. And also, be prepared to hike as the Blue trail is quiet steep. Mount Costa is child friendly place but it would be nice for the place to be a pwd accessible too, though the stairs are not that high, it would be great to have a handrail. Only few people know this place and if you’d like to have a quiet place to visit, come visit Mount Costa.

  • 5/5 Famery F. 1 year ago on Google
    What I love about this place is that it's not congested with tourist so you can really take your time to relax and unwind while walking through their different gardens. The various gardens are very interactive. Kudos, because they also have a corner for children. They have a lot of places there to have a photoshoot. Now, the entrance fee depends on what you will be having. Since we opted for the fee that has lunch-included, we paid 300 pesos or about $6. If you just wan the snack, they have the 200-250 pesos option. We were really not that expecting much but surprisingly, the lunch served was ample in amount, delicious, and you can choose which set you want, even the drinks.

    What a wonderful world class garden near Baguio. Well planned and made by people who pay attention to details. I can’t believe we were all alone at 930am. So peaceful and calming. Stress buster for life.

    If you are just escaping the stress from the city, add this to your next trip or itinerary because aside from its food services, the scenery is marvelous. Parking area is just beside the spot, so make sure to look for that but you can park outside but make sure to arrange it kasi there are huge trucks that were passing by. Entrance fee as what I remember is 200 per person (there are rates that offers the entrance fee plus a meal that you can choose from). Lots of short hike but worth it kasi you are able to see different stations. A must-go destination if you're planning to go sa La Trinidad or Baguio City.

    This is the right place if you really appreciate nature. A relaxing way also to flex your legs muscles. Though they offered lots of food choices from the reception, they can only serve you with what's left. Overall, this place is highly recommended.

    I’ve been to Mount Costa a few years back when the plants were still small. Visited it again this June with my family and we loved the place so much that we pretty much had closed to a thousand photos. Such a serene place that is away from the busy streets of Baguio City. About 19 minutes to La Trinidad and you will find Mount Costa situated in a vast layer of land with different themes to offer where you can take Instagrammable shots. They have benches and comfort rooms for ease of access plus an area where you can buy great coffee, tea, and shakes plus other drinks and snacks. We spent hours in this place and created so much memorable bonding moments with family.

Over all it was a good experience and a must visit during your stay in Baguio.

    The place was serene and peaceful, considering we came on a holiday. The tour guide was nice and informative. There were some kiosks in the area for food and drinks. The price was sulit considering that food was already included in the package. Some of the mini gardens (such as the Japan theme) need more care and it would probably be nice if there will also be light installations soon.

    It’s our first time visiting Mount Costa, and we love the place! We get the lunchbox (ticket with meal) for very affordable price. Wear comfortable clothes as there will be a lot of walking! Every garden is unique! And food was also great!!! I highly recommend visiting this place if you want to a different nature encounter experience!!! 🤩

    Availed of the tour packaged with lunchbox and availed the free tour guide as well to get to know the history and concept of the place. The guide is for free but you’ll have to leave a google review for them. The tour did not disappoint. I was able to roam around and was able to see all 24 gardens. Each garden has a unique story. Kudos to the person behind all of these concepts. This ecopark is recommended to those who seek calmness and those who appreciate art. The place is well organized but needs more improvement to cater more colors perhaps to make it more appealing to people. I suggest to add more flower plants with different colors. The food is delicious though a bit pricey. One meal is free if you avail lunchbox set so still a good deal! :)

    A refreshing place to see. The whole place was mesmerizing and other-worldly. I think availing the tour guide would be very worth it (it's included in the entrance fee), we weren’t able to avail due to the time. Worth the walk and the hike. A great place to unwind and take lots of photos :)

    Discovering Mount Costa in Baguio City was a blissful escape – the tranquil surroundings let me unwind, immersed in the soothing symphony of nature. The welcoming staff added a personal touch, making you feel genuinely at home. I found myself captivated by the picturesque landscapes, providing a perfect backdrop for relaxation. A sense of contentment lingered, promising that I'd be drawn back to this haven again. Mount Costa, with its serene charm, left an indelible mark on my desire for future getaways.

    It is my second time here. A peaceful respite from the chaos & noise of Baguio City. The park is well manicured & not crowded. Nature is abundant. Art is alive. Solitude means sitting on a bench with the chirping of birds, the scent of the pine trees & the fresh, cool mountain breeze nourishing your soul.

    Thank you Mount Costa for the superb tour with my tour guide Ate Perlita who toured me through all the gardens. It was indeed a relaxing me-time. The forest area is cool and refreshing that I can just sleep on the benches under the trees. It may be a little far from the city but coming here is worth it. Thank you for the plant souvenir.💜

    Our very first time going to the place and tour guide was very informative in all gardens that were shown. Very affordable for the price. Each had its unique feature, showcasing different foreign-inspired garden concepts to those who would visit. All gardens are unique than other gardens from the Philippines. There were also stalls for food and drinks if tired, most are affordable and refreshing. The tour guide was very accommodating. It would be nice to have railings for some of the trails to be able to accommodate and lessen risk of accidents.

    The Mount Costa was awesome! There was a spot to eat surrounded by all the pretty plants. And whenever you felt tired, there were these cool resting places where you could just chill and enjoy the beauty around you. But the best part was how amazing nature was there – so many different plants and flowers that made the whole place feel magical and relaxing. It was like stepping into a dream world full of natural wonders!
