Mainit Hot Springs Protected Landscape, Protected thermal area in Nabunturan, Philippines

The Mainit Hot Springs Protected Landscape extends across 1,374 hectares of mountainous terrain, featuring natural thermal pools and numerous waterways in Davao de Oro.

President Carlos P. Garcia established the area as a national park in 1957, initially protecting 1,381 hectares before its reclassification as a protected landscape in 2000.

The Mansaka indigenous tribe maintains strong connections to this land, where thermal waters have supported traditional healing practices for generations.

Visitors can reach the springs via the Pan-Philippine Highway and Nabunturan-Mainit Park Road, with facilities including cottages and developed pools for bathing.

The protected area contains over thirty caves, rock formations, and both primary and secondary growth dipterocarp forests at elevations up to 1,200 meters.
