The Baguio–Bua–Itogon National Road (alternatively the Baguio–Bua–Itogon–Dalupirip National Road, or simply Baguio-Bua-Itogon Road) is a major highway[1] in northern Luzon that runs from the city of Baguio to the municipality of Itogon in the province of Benguet.[2]

It serves as an important route for accessing the mining town of Itogon,[3] particularly six of its barangays (Tuding, Gumatdang, Ucab, Poblacion (Central), Tinongdan, and Dalupirip).

The highway's west terminus begins from a junction with Leonard Wood Road.[4] Its east end lies in the mid-area of the large southern barangay of Dalupirip, just beside the Agno River.

Within the Philippine highway network, the entire highway is designated as an unnumbered national tertiary road.[5]
