The City of Davao, nowadays, was able to live up to the meaning of their name which is ‘beyond the high ground’. Davao City has been considered as one of the Asia’s beloved cities in terms of financial progress. For this reason, the Foreign District Investment Magazine hailed Davao City as the one of the ‘Asian City of the Future’ bagging the tenth place.

Mount Apo, the highest mountain in the Philippines seems to be deity overlooking the brilliant city.
The Grandfather of Philippines Mountains
Mount Apo has been one of the main reasons why nature lovers and especially mountaineers all over the world visit the City of Davao. Considered to be the ‘master’ or ‘the grandfather’ of all the mountains in the Philippines, Mount Apo stands 9,692 feet above the ground and pompously looking over, as if guarding, the beautiful City of Davao from possible outsiders or invaders that would threaten the place. Mount Apo is considered to be a potentially active stratovolcano. The towering height of almost ten thousand feet is the reason why it is the most admired and popular climbing destinations in the Philippines. The mountain was considered a national park way back 1930’s. Mount Apo has been a shelter for different flora and fauna and has been considered as one of the highest land-based biological diversity. Reaching its peak would take an average of two-four days of hike and during the trek diverse sights could be seen like the one of the highest lakes in the Philippines which is the Lake Venado. This ‘Master Mountain’ could be climbed the whole year-round.
