Irosin lies at the foot of Bulusan Volcano, the tail end of the Sierra Madre Mountain Ranges at the southern tip of Luzon. The town rests in a caldera; the valley floor is approximately 4,105.321 hectares. The Bulusan Volcano and several other mountains almost surround the wide valley floor, making the town the only landlocked municipality of the province.
Irosin has a very irregular terrain characterized by the plain on the valley floor, secluded plains and valleys on the mountaintops, undulating hills and mountain peaks. The valley for which Irosin is famous is located at the floor of Irosin caldera.

There are some fabulous photos of Irosin on these websites: http://nonsenseverse.typepad.com/photos/philippines/img_0494... and here http://irosin.ph/gallery/
Looks like a great place to vacation!
