Bogani Nani Wartabone National Park

The park spans 2,871 square kilometers across the Minahassa Peninsula, containing dense rainforest with numerous species of plants, mammals, and birds.

The national park received its current name in 1991, honoring Nani Wartabone, who fought against Japanese forces during World War II.

The Bolaang Mongondow Festival in March and Gorontalo Festival in May celebrate local traditions near the national park boundaries.

Visitors can access the park through Manado's Sam Ratulangi Airport, followed by a three-hour drive to the main entrance at Toraut.

The park maintains four dedicated breeding sites at Hungoyono camp, where geothermal hot sand provides natural conditions for maleo bird reproduction.
