Timpoong and Hibok-Hibok Natural Monument, Natural monument in Camiguin Island, Philippines

The protected area spans 3,739 hectares across two volcanoes, Mount Timpoong and Mount Hibok-Hibok, featuring waterfalls, mossy forests, and dipterocarp forests.

President Gloria Arroyo established the natural monument through Proclamation No. 570 in 2004, protecting the last remaining rainforest on Camiguin Island.

Local communities maintain traditional practices through selected agroforestry activities within designated areas of the natural monument, contributing to sustainable resource management.

Visitors can access multiple hiking trails leading to waterfalls, including Katibawasan and Binangawan Falls, while observing diverse wildlife and plant species.

The monument houses endemic species like the Camiguin forest mouse, Camiguin hanging parrot, and Camiguin narrow-mouthed frog, found nowhere else on Earth.
