General Information

Mt. Malindang Natural Park lies within the Malindang mountain range in Mindanao, straddling the provinces of Misamis Occidental, Zamboanga del Norte and Zamboanga del Sur. It covers over 34,000 hectares. Its highest peak is at 2,402 meters above sea level. The Park’s allure comes from its waterfalls, crater lake and dense virgin forests which host diverse and rare species of flora and fauna. A variety of trees - large, straight trunked evergreens, igem and almaciga grow in the lower parts of its forests while dwarf and crooked stem trees crowd the mossy forest found in the mountain’s upper parts. The rare and endangered Philippine Eagle, Flying Lemur, Deer, Tarsier, and Hornbills live in the Park. Other significant species found there include mammals such as the Philippine Deer, Wild Pig, Long-tailed Macaque, Palm Civet and Civet Cat. Moreover, the Park is known to be home of six amphibians, three reptiles, 67 birds and 25 mammals which are endemic

to the place. Sixteen major rivers trace their sources from the Park. Over one million people living in the three provinces depend on these waters for domestic and industrial purposes, as well as for farming of coconut, rice, root crops, vegetables, legumes, cacao and coffee. The indigenous people known as Subanen are believed to have occupied the mountain since time immemorial. Today, they live within and around the Park, practice slash-and-burn farming and have retained their distinct customs and traditions.
