3,003 Steps to Linabo PeakHigh at the foot of the heavens, concrete steps winding along a tunnel of verdant trees leads the visitor to a panoramic vista of sky, plains and sea -- horizons and a spectacular view of the twin cities of Dipolog and Dapitan. This is Dipolog's highest elevation point -- 460 meters above sea level. A rarefied experience, at the very least. The first 1,001 steps were started in August 1991 and opened a new scenic attraction -- Linabo Peak. The 14 Stations of the Cross punctuate the way up. And at the peak is a community chapel for prayer and contemplation, a very conducive setting for both quiet and soaring spirits.
