About Rajah Sikatuna National Park

Rajah Sikatuna National Park
 

Rajah Sikatuna National Park, located in the central part of Bohol, Philippines, spans approximately 22,000 acres of lush rainforest. Known for its rich biodiversity, the park serves as one of the last strongholds for the endangered Philippine tarsier, a small primate recognized for its large eyes. The park's terrain is a mix of rolling hills, limestone formations, and dense forest canopies. Established in 1987, it has become a sanctuary for both indigenous flora and fauna. Visitors to the park can explore several well-maintained hiking trails that offer birdwatching opportunities, with over 120 bird species recorded, including the rare Philippine hawk-eagle. The park also has several karst formations and caves, making it a notable spot for geology enthusiasts. An eco-tourism destination, Rajah Sikatuna National Park attracts nature lovers with its promise of untouched natural beauty and a chance to experience the serene environment that supports diverse ecosystems.
