Mines View Park is an overlook park on the northeastern outskirts of Baguio in the Philippines. Located on a land promontory 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) from downtown Baguio, the park overlooks the mining town of Itogon, particularly the abandoned gold[1] and copper mines[2] of the Benguet Corporation, and offers a glimpse of the Amburayan Valley.[3] The observation deck is situated below a winding stone-covered stairway close to the parking area.[3]
