Route: Mt. Dinor (Philippines)

“The summit in Mt. Dinor is situated in an old dipterocarp forest within the Mt. Apo Natural Park. The word ‘Dinor’ is a Bagobo term for Almaciga, an endemic tree species in the Philippines and plenty of them can be seen in this mountain. The last 400 meters of the trail is a bed sheet of beautiful mossy plants and wild flowers. Tracks of Philippine Deer and Philippine Warty Pig were also seen in the summit. And some birds of assorted species were observed, including several raptors Philippine Honey Buzzard, Brahminy Kite and Philippine Serpent Eagle.”
