MOUNTAIN DIWATA

Located fifteen minutes from San Francisco, Mount Magdiwata, or Diwata, nicknamed the "mystical mountain", rises to 600 meters. Legend has it that a pregnant fairy(diwata) died here, hence the shape of a reclining pregnant woman. At its foot, a spring provides drinking water for the local inhabitants. The mountain is home to a lush forest and many tropical plants and animals, including wild orchids and rare birds. The peak offers a beautiful view of the Agusan valley. The ascent requires little effort and can be completed in a day.
