4. Mount Hamiguitan Range Wildlife Sanctuary
A mountain located in the province of Davao Oriental, Mount Hamiguitan is the only protected forest noted for its unique bonsai field or 'pygmy' forest of 100-year old trees in an ultramafic soil. Mount Hamiguitan has the most diverse wildlife populations in the country where several species of Nepenthes ad Philippine eagles can be found.
Puerto-Princesa Subterranean River National Park (also called Puerto Princesa Underground River) is a protected area in the country which features a spectacular limestone karst landscape and an underground river. The site represents a significant habitat for biodiversity conservation and boasts a full ‘mountain-to-sea’ ecosystem
Located in Legaspi City, this is one of the most active (if not the most active) volcano in the country. It is known for its near-perfect cone and is also the mountaineers’ favorite because of the challenge of climbing this volcano. Seen near the volcano is the bell tower of the church of the town of Cagsawa, the only reminder of its most destructive eruption on Feb. 1, 1814.
