Mount Madia-as, Dormant volcano in Culasi, Antique, Philippines.

Mount Madia-as rises 2,117 meters above sea level, featuring a crown shyness forest where tree canopies grow near each other without touching.

The mountain's name derives from the Kedatuan of Madja-as, a royal confederation that existed in Panay from 1200 to 1569.

Local mythology designates Mount Madia-as as the residence of Sidapa, the god of death and war, who measures newborns' lives using a magical tree.

The summit requires a challenging two to three day climb through the Flores Trail, with local guides available from the town of Culasi.

The mountain slopes contain fourteen waterfalls and numerous pitcher plants, making it a center for biological research in the Western Visayas region.
