The Governor Pack Road (also referred to as Gov. Pack Road) is a major highway in Baguio, Philippines, named for the American William Francis Pack (1861-1944), who was appointed Military Governor of Benguet on November 15, 1901 and served as the civilian Governor of Mountain Province, in which Benguet was once part of as a subprovince, from 1909 to 1912.[2][3][4]

The entire road forms part of National Route 54 (N54) and National Route 110 (N110) of the Philippine highway network.[1] It was historically part of Highway 11 especially during the American colonial era.[5]
