Quirino Hill is situated on the north of Baguio City and is about 2.5 km from the heart of the city. It is composed of 4 political barangays (the Middle Quirino Hill, Lower Quirino Hill, East Quirino Hill and West Quirino Hill) and the Cocgcoga, Pico, La Trinidad, Benguet on the north hillside.

It is characterized by steep hillsides with a flat summit ridge that arched down toward the east until suspended by the La Trinidad Road at the city limit. Extending to the west includes the Buyog watershed to meet the uplands of barangays Pinget and Dreamland. The north hillside remains a camotal land of Cogcoga and the south hillside including the ridge is the populated clusters of the four Quirino Hill barangays.

Being sandwiched by Baguio and La Trinidad, the climate of this place is blended by these two great ‘cities.’ The temperature is claimed to have become relatively warmer after the disappearance of large trees and numbers of rock formation that are being replaced by residential houses and other infrastructure projects.

The land formation is characterized by the presence of rocks, caves (closed for the people's safety), and pure soil. The houses, especially those were built at the steep soil, which can be mostly found at the La Trinidad Road wall needed the land to be strengthened with supporting structures to avoid land erosions and accidents.
