Bicol Natural Park

Bicol Natural Park is a protected nature reserve in the Bicol Region that spreads across mountainous terrain between two provinces. The park contains thick rainforest that shelters many animal and plant species throughout its varied landscape.

The protected area was established in the 1930s to preserve the region's forests and wildlife. It has grown in size over the decades to protect a larger portion of the landscape.

The park holds deep significance for nearby communities who depend on its forests for resources and cultural practices. Local people view the space as a vital connection to their land and heritage.

The park sits in a mountainous area best explored on foot or with guided tours. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes and bring gear for wet conditions, as the region receives frequent rainfall.

An exceptionally old and large hardwood tree has stood in the park for more than a century, shaping the forest landscape. This massive tree serves as a symbol of nature's longevity for local people and draws the attention of many visitors.
