Mati Protected Landscape, Protected natural area in Davao Oriental, Philippines.

The Mati Protected Landscape spans 914 hectares of mountainous terrain with diverse ecosystems including forests, watersheds, and coastal areas near Pujada Bay.

The area transformed from a forest reserve established in 1967 to a protected landscape in 2005 through Presidential Proclamation 912 signed by Gloria Arroyo.

Local communities maintain sustainable practices within the protected area while preserving traditional agricultural methods and environmental stewardship principles.

Visitors can reach the protected landscape via a barangay road from Mati City or through a 165-kilometer highway connection from Davao City.

The landscape contains four essential water sources - Banahaw Creek, Binuangan Creek, Licop Creek, and Bitanagan River - supplying water to the entire city.
