The sun endearingly lit up our Sunday roadtrip to the bucolic little town named Adams nestled in the northern end of the Cordillera Mountain Range. Yes, with a sigh of relief, there’s still such a sylvan habitat in Ilocos, and my homies immersed in the quiet elegance of nature. Peace on earth!
The only public transport in Adams.
Silong diay Adams. Red mountain rice is enough only for local consumption.
Lola Dominga Acupan gifts me with her famous Adams tapuey, and bugnay wine.
One of the homestays in Adams. It is like a mini resort complete with a tilapia farm and koi fish breeding pond.
The Lenie, master cook in Adams, with husband Daniel. Not to miss is an indigenous lunch by the river, awesome local fare!

I am amazed and always impressed how you are able to highlight the best out of what otherwise would be a sleepy boring town to some. Your province is very lucky to have you as their ambassador and best marketer.
I agree with bebs1. Ilocos Norte is lucky to have you as an ambassador and marketer of the province. I have a list of musts – places to visit and things to do. Majority was from your site.
By the way, do you know the exact dates of things going on during Fiesta. I would like to plan my stay around the festivities.
thanks to you both! humbled. there’s a calendar of activities the date of some activities may change. i’ll try to post early, as soon as the City Hall releases the calendar. thanks, again, Ana!
how to go there? where to stay?
you have to go on a off-toad or 4×4 vehicle. turn right after Panzzian Beach and Mountain Resort or commute and take the public transport (motorcycle) by the Pancian-Adams junction. There are 4 homestays in Adams.
Been planning to go here with fellow travel bloggers. So if we use motorcycle can we reach the town center safely? Thanks!
of course! just 20 mins away from the Pancian, Pagudpud-Adams junction. the ride will be rough, but worth it.
