Accessibility
In terms of accessibility the Mt. Malindang Ranges become more easy for
the local and foreign tourist to visit the areas that possess significant
attributes that could possibly invite mountaineers, enthusiast and nature
lovers. With the advent of technology, it made more possible to visit the
unique features of the PA. Accordingly, the presence of 14 major road
networks emamating from the national highways in the municipalities and
cities within the three provinces of Misamis Occidental, Zamboaga del Norte
and Zamboanga del Sur. The park could be easily access by means of
single motorcyclelocally known as “Habal-habal” and four wheeled type
vehicle. In some instance, the area of the park to the Municipality of Don
Victoriano one can reach Don Victoriano through jeepneys, motorcycles and
PUB.
For local and foreign visitors outside in the province, Philippine Airlines, Air
Philippines and Cebu Pacific has three weekly domestic flights from
Ozamiz to Manila and Cebu City vice versa. Also shipping line companies
ferry services from Cebu City and Iligan City every other day.
II.
PHYSICAL FEATURES
2.1 Topography and Geological Features
The province of Misamis Occidental which is the Northeasternmost portion
of the Zamboanga Peninsula, belongs to the Central Visayas subprovince of
the Central Physiographic Province. The sub province also includes the
adjacent Bohol and North Bukidnon-lanao Plateau. The Misamis Volcanic
complex is predominantly rugged and mountainous, consisting of five major
physiographic features: volcanic mountains; volcanic flanks; isolated
hillocks; volcanic footsloes; and coastal and alluvial plains. The volcanic
Malindang range with its volcanic flanks dominates the Misamis Occidental
as a linear cluster generally oriented nort-South. The mountains have steep
slopes (often>75%) moderately to severely dissected by ravines, gullies and
gorges.
The volcanic flanks lie from 600 to 1000m altitude with slopes 18-45% and
straddle the border of the park. Most are moderately to severely dissected
by ravines and deep, nearly vertical gullies, sometimes forming
amphitheaters.
2.2 Elevation
The most prominent mountain is Mt. Malindang itself with an elevation of
2,404
meters
above sea level.

2.3 Hydrological Features
2.3.1 River Systems
Mt. Malindang Range is the source
of the 17 major rivers catchments
arise in the park or its buffer zone
(Table 5.1), each with numerous
tributaries emanating from the Core
Area. They radiate outwards from
the
central
volcanic
mass,
generally getting narrower at lower
altitudes.
A large number of
smaller rivers and streams arise

parallel drainage pattern. As the
(Photo by M. Ignacio)
land has been cleared, anecdotal
evidence suggests that stream flow is becoming more irregular.
The potable water coming from Mt.Malindang provides water for domestic
uses, industrial, agricultural and other uses to more than one million
inhabitants of Misamis Occidental and eastern parts of Zamboanga del
Norte and Zamboanga del Sur.

2.3.3 Hotspring
There are three (3) hotspring found
inside Mt. Malindang. One of the
famous and has wider size is the
Sebucal
Hotspring
which
considered by the local resident as
“sulfur spring” particularly located in
the hinterland of Barangay Sebucal,
Oroquieta City. The hotspring has a
depth of 2.0 meters. Mostly of the
visitors took a bath inside the
lagoon of the hotspring. The hottest spring is the Liboron Spring found last
2010 in the hinterlands of Municiplaity of Don Victoriano, Misamis

2.3.4 LAKE
CRATER LAKE DUMINAGAT
Lake Duminagat is located
approximately at Latitude
8°18’N and longitude of
123°37’E, with an altitude
of
approximately
1560
masl. Its nearest barangay
are
barangay
Lake
Dumigat, and Gandawan.
One of the mountains at the
periphery of Barangay Lake
is North Peak, which has
an elevation of 2,183 masl.
The geologic history of Mt. Malindang range (Dickeroson, 1928) and lake
basin topography would justify the lake Duminagat as crater lake. There was
probably a violent ejection of magma forming the depression that
accumulated water, which gave rise to the lake. Lake Duminagat is
surrounded by mountains at all sides, except the opening in the westerly
direction. The surrounding slope has an average slope to 45.6 degree. The
total area of the catchment basin is about 53.2 has. The map scale show the
lake dimension to be 350 m in the E-W and 300 m N-S direction. The lake
has no inlet streams, with only one small outflow stream located at the
southeastern part of the lakeshore. Lake Duminagat is a small lake with a
surface area of only 80,400 sg. M.or 8.04 has. Its maximum depth of 20 .95
m is about at the almost middle of the circular lake.(Hansel et. Al, 2004)
III.

with pandan and tree ferns.
e. Mossy Forest and Associated Forest
The mossy forest and associated
forest is situated mostly in
prominent forested peaks of the
range, steep mountains ridges and
deep canyons above 1500 m. The
Flora that dominates in the mossy
forest
are
ferns,
liverworts,
mosses
orchids
and
other
epiphytes.
Tree species are composed of
Podocarpus,
Dacrycarpus,
Engelbartia, Myrica, and Zyzigium
species.Fauna species found are

Wildlpig, toads, frogs, lizard and
Mossy forest found in the North Peak of Mt.
associated bird species of genus
Malindang
Dicaeum, Zosterop, Erythrura,
shortwings and island trush. (MMRNP GMP 2000)
The forest cover of Mt. Malindang has contributed much in maintaining the
health and welfare of the constituents in Misamis Occidental by providing
clean water for domestic and agricultural uses, absorb Carbon dioxide of
about 200,000 tons per year and release oxygen of about 146,000 tons to
the atmosphere.
3.1 Flora
The Mt. Malindang Range is endowed and harbors
with numerous type of plants both endemic and
critically endangered in status. The research studies
have been undertaken includes Mearns in 1906 and
Rabor in 1956. In recent park survey in Don
Victoriano it recorded 223 plant species in 89
families. Experience from recent survey elsewhere
in the Philippines would suggest a high degree of

endemism and a substantial number of species not yet known scientifically.
The more accessible parts of Mt. Malindang Range up to about 800 m have
been cleared by logging and shifting cultivation.
Mt. Malindang Range has three main type of forest covers that includes the
Dipterocarp forest, Lower Montane forest, and the Mossy forest. Dipterocarp
forest is found up to 1,000 masl that is dominated by straight-trunked
evergreen trees of the family Dipterocarpaceae. It is located at the lower
part of the core area. The lower montane forest is located above the
dipterocarp. It is characterized by the presence of Igem (Podocarpus sp.)
and Almaciga (Agathis sp.). Above the lower montane forest is the Mossy
forest that is characterized by dwarf trees and abundance of ferns,
liverworts, mosses and epiphytes.(MMRNP GMP 2000)
According to Tabaranza et al., (2001) there are 422 species of plants have
been documented belonging to 110 families. Several of these species are
endemic and many are locally depleted with extinction like a rattan species
Calamus merrili and 10 dipterocarp species like Shorea contorta, Shorea
negronensis, and Shorea polysperma. Many forest dependent species e.g.
Sili-sili “Drimys piperita, “Kalingag” Cinnamomum mercadoi known to be of
high medicinal values and being used by the indigenous people. High
valued ornamentals include Medinilla spp., Caryota cuminggii and orchids.
Dr. Amoroso et. Al. (2004) found during the
inventory of plant species in Mt. Malindang a total
of 1,284 species, 472 genera and 187 families.
Among the group of plants 873 were considered as
angiosperms,
20
gymnosperms,
280
as
pterodophytes, 85 as byrophytes, and 25 species
as lichens (Appendix B)
The percentage of
angiosperms, gymnosperms and pteridophytes
was
comparatively higher than the percentage reported
Lady slipper (Paphiopedilum sp. )
by Tabaranza et al (2001) and Arances (2004). For
species found in Mt. Malindang
Pterodophytes alone the number of species
(Photo by M. Ignacio)
recorded represented about 44% of the 632
species found in Mindanao (Amoroso 2000).On the other hand, Zamora and
Co (1986) reported that 33 species of gymnosperm in the Philippines in the
Philippines and 20 species or 60% found in Mt. Malindang. It revealed
further that for vegetation type, the montane and mossy forest has higher
species richness (263 and 256 species respectively)
Sinha, C and Heaney, L (2006) include Mt. Malindang in the list of
extremely high conservation priority areas of plants based on figure 8.a
PBCPP 2002.

ANTHROPOLOGICAL FATURES
4.1
Cultural Resources
By origin, the only
ethnic tribes existing in
the province is the
SUBANOS
–
the
freedom loving people
in Northern Mindanao.
Subano is derived from
the vernacular word
“SUBA” which means
river. They are called as
such because they
dwell near or along
Rituals sa pagpananghid or ask permission to Mambabaja of
riverbanks. They prefer
the Subanen IP’s led by Timoays at Barangay Namut, Tudela,
Misamis Occ photo by Jelsun Bueza
to live near the rivers for
convenience in washing
rootcrops, cooking, bathing and as source of drinking water.
Accordingly, they used bamboo culms in fetching water and the
coconut shells as drinking cups or pitchers. The bamboo tubes used
for fetching water is locally called as “SAG-OB” and the coco shells
as “HUNGOT”.
Profile of Mt. Malindang Range Natural Park
13
Shelter and Livelihood
The Subanos usually build their house at the top of trees using native
materials like cogon for roofing and walling, white lauan bark for flooring and
rattan strips for tying.
Subanos are hardworking and cares their living in their own ways. Farming
is their main source of living. Their main crops are corn, rice, vegetables and
rootcrops. They sell their products in the nearest market or barter them with
co-tribesmen.
Cultural Practices
Subanos have certain beliefs, traditions and rituals through food offerings
cooked without salt during the new moon or full moon. Specific ceremonies/
rituals are practiced for different occasions like wedding, baptismal, burial,
and fiestas.
Wedding Ceremonies
Wedding agreements are arranged in the presence of the head of the tribe
called “TIMOAY”. Dowries and other necessities will be provided by the
groom’s family. At the time when the wedding agreement/negotiation is
going on, the bride stays under mosquito net in exclusive room. When the
wedding agreement is finally made, the groom gets the bride, give P1.50
and other obligations and bring the bride, to the “TIMOAY” who will then
initiate the “DAGA”. A “DAGA” is a ceremony whereby the bride and groom
lays their tools like axes and bolos and wipe their palms with blood in an
upward positions. The TIMOAY then get leaves of three plants namely;
Salimbangon, Tobo-tobo and Salamoya which will be wiped with the blood
of a white rooster. After the ceremony the TIMUAY will offer a prayer and
gives advice to the new couple. For three days the new couple will stay in
the bride’s home and the groom pays P50.00 to the bride as an obligation.
Baptismal
Rituals for baptismal is called by the Subanos as “KANORATA”. The father
of the baby to be baptized prepares sugarcane juice, mix it in a basin of
water where the baby is bathe. They then say a prayer for the baby’s good
health.
Burial
At the time of the burial, the bereaved family and relatives will offer a prayer
for the death of their beloved. As they bury the dead, all his belongings are
also buried with him on the belief that he can bring these things to his new
world. Offerings known as “PALANAS-PALAYA” are made believing that the
spirit of the dead will separate from the living.
Profile of Mt. Malindang Range Natural Park
14
Fiesta
Their fiesta is called “BOKLOG”. All their earnings must be spent for the
occasion rather than spending it on their birthdays.
Death Anniversary
Preparations are made for the occasion. The “BAYLAN” or head will offer
prayers for the dead inviting their spirits to eat with them in the ceremony.
The presence of IP in the park has both negative and positive impacts to
the its existence considering the way of life that engaged in traditional
farming and some are doing slash and burn cultivation that endangered the
biological resources found therein. On the other side their traditional
practices also help in the management of the park that also lead to the
conservation of natural resources.
Archeological Sites
Lobong Balo is one of the burial sites of the Subanen IP’s which they
considered as sacred places, etc.

Population
Fifty four (54%) of the households in the park, mostly in the buffer zone are
Subanen while the proportion at the core area of the park is much higher, at
well over 90%.

Tourism and Recreation
Mt. Malindang is among the
remaining rainforest in Mindanao
Island, Philippines. It is the home of
the of the most diverse species of
endemic, rare and endangered
wildlife such as the pride of the
Philippine and considered as one of
the rarest and critically endangered
Philippine Eagle. It is known as the
country’s national bird. Another
endemic mammal found only in Mt.
Piduan falls at Sitio Piduan, Lalud, Don Victoriano,
Malindang the Malindang Shrew. The Misamis Occidental Photo by: M Ignacio
park is rich in terms of flora and
fauna and feasible area for educational and research purposes. Moreover,
the park has numerous potential areas for tourist attractions such as for
ecotourism, outdoor recreation, public viewing and enjoyment. The heighten
the awareness activities can be done in areas within the park that possess

unique features and grandeur. ( e.g. Lake Dumingat, Sebucal Hotspring,
mountain peaks, waterfalls, camping areas and trekking.
Mt. Malindang Peak is one of the highest peak in MMRNP with an height of 2400 meters above sea
level.
Some of the natural features of MMRNP have not been disturbed by human
activities. In addition, the park is also good for scientific and socio-cultural
studies that could help in designing suitable approaches to level off various
interest from the point of views of the indigenous people in national and
global arena.

THREATS
At present, Mt. Malindang is generally peaceful although it was identified
before as the haven of insurgents. Presence of armed men in several
Barangays of Tudela, Bonifacio, Tangub City and Don Victoriano were
reported.
The main livelihood of the occupant is farming. Because of the increasing
population within and around the park, encroachment inside the park for
subsistence is a major threat. Other threats include the over-exploitation by
traditional practices that may not be sustainable with today’s population and
unsuitable infrastructure and inappropriate tourism development.
Flooding
occurrence
in
the
lowland
area
of
Mt.
Malindang was
mainly caused
of
the
poor
practices
and
development in
the
upland
areas. Improper
farming
practices
and
massive cutting
of trees are
detrimental not
only
to
the
biological
resources but also to the human population that largely depend on it. Upland
communities depend on forestland for their subsistence living. Conversion of
forest land into agricultural areas endangered the forest ecosystems the
provides enormous ecological benefits for the sustenance of life. The impact
of continuous degrading the upland ecosystem will result to the flooding in
the low lying areas in Misamis Occidental. Instead of absorbing the
rainwater during the rainy season it will immediately drain to the river
channel and it become a flood. Poor upland communities consider the
forest area as the only resources that could help for them to survive. One
way to continue their existence they have to encroach the forest resources
which will led the chain effect the flooding that damages already damages
lives, major infrastructure project and properties.
The government must take drastic move to solve this exacerbating problem
that existed since time immemorial. Extension and implementation of
livelihood project for additional income of the upland communities will be the
concrete answer of the never ending dependence of this communities.
