From Davao City, take a bus to Digos City and stop by at Digos City New Terminal. Ride a tricycle to Digos City Old Terminal. From there, you'll have to get into "Kapatagan" either by riding a Van or by habal-habal. Wait until you'll be able to get into the Sitio Baras Checkpoint where Camp Sabros sign can be found. From there either you may take a shuttle or walk.
