Angat Watershed Forest Reserve, Protected forest reserve in Bulacan, Philippines
The Angat Watershed Forest Reserve encompasses 62,309 hectares of mountainous terrain with dense lowland rainforests, bamboo forests, and grasslands across four provinces.
Established on April 30, 1968, through Presidential Decree 391, the reserve originated from the 1904 Angat River Reserve designated for water power development.
The indigenous Dumagat tribe maintains traditional settlements across twelve sitios within the forest reserve, connecting their heritage to the natural environment.
The reserve supplies 97 percent of Metro Manila's water through the Angat Dam system and generates 200 megawatts of hydroelectric power for the Luzon grid.
The conservation area hosts 290 endemic plant species and serves as an Important Bird Area for Philippine species like the Luzon hornbill and Philippine eagle owl.
