Foggy roads in Tagaytay – Part 1

August 9, 2024 8:53 am / Leave a comment

It’s been a while since the last time I was in Tagaytay. We used to go there at least once a month. Eventually, we grew tired of the traffic and the city becoming quite crowded. Of course, our schedules also became more busy so the drives for a weekend getaway turned into trips for music lessons (for our daughter) and meet-ups with friends. It was a welcome return last July when I had to go to Tagaytay Highlands for a meeting and then join up with our college for a workshop on the other end of the city. Here are some photos of the foggy roads that reminded me of the Tagaytay of old.

We took the Kaykulot Road from the Sta. Rosa-Tagaytay Road so we didn’t have to pass by the busy junction with the Tagaytay-Calamba Road.
Some sections of the Kaykulot Road was heavily shrouded with fog. We wondered if we could see vehicles or people given the very limited visibility. At this portion, the 4-lane road narrows into 2 lanes.
This is the section of the Kaykulot Road with the CCT Tagaytay Retreat Center on the left. Can you see the tricycle with its headlight on? And can you see the man on a bicycle ahead of our vehicle? I could but other people might not and this situation creates a higher likelihood for crashes.
Fog along the Tagaytay – Calamba Road
Approach to Tagaytay Highlands – can you see the sign stating “Road subject to dense fog”?
