Manleluag Spring Protected Landscape, Protected landscape with natural hot springs in Mangatarem, Philippines

The protected area extends across 1,935 hectares of land, featuring two ophiolitic hot springs near Mount Malabobo within the Zambales Mountain Range.

The site became a forest reserve in 1934 under Governor-General Frank Murphy, later transforming into a national park in 1940 through President Manuel Quezon's proclamation.

The landscape maintains critical habitats for over 90 bird species, including the Philippine frogmouth and rufous hornbill native to the region.

Visitors can access the mineral-rich thermal waters with pH levels between 11 and 13, originating from underground sources beneath Mount Zambales.

The protected area contains two rivers, Baracbac and Basican, supporting diverse ecosystems across low rolling hills at 1,033 feet elevation.
