The Majestic Mount Kanlaon

A haven for mountain climbers who wanted to experience another chill in hiking, Mount Kanlaon is Located in Negros Oriental, somewhat boundary of Negros Occidental and Oriental, in Visayas Philippines. Mount Kanlaon was said to be extinct but it erupted I think in 1991, I was in Bacolod City when the Volcano erupted, the climate change and I think it rained for a week or so. Mount Kanlaon is now considered to be an active volcano, but although with its Mighty power, Mount Kanlaon Houses some exotic species in its vast rainforest.

Mt. Kanlaon is a majestic active volcano located in Negros Oriental in the Philippines. It is an attraction to tourists and other mountain climbing enthusiast.

Wildlife is lushing th the forest of Mt. Kanlaon. Mt. Kanla-on National Park is the home of abundant species of birds including the rare and only seen in the area, hornbill, parakeets, and even migratory birds from northern part of Asia. Monitor lizards scramble over fallen logs and Draco the "flying" lizard might sweep overhead. Although there are several harmless species of snakes which are very rare on encounters, caution must be a primaty thing to do.

At the top, panoramic scenes of rock walls and cliffs cover of the forest, beside the Margaha Valley's cogon grass and shrub-covered floor. Mornings are late and the evenings are early in the Valley. Patches of greens, yellows, olives, and tans from agricultural lands below are cut by the sea with formations of clouds hugging the horizon.
