MAPAWA NATURE PARK NOTICE (Facebook Aug 7, 2020)
It is with deep regret that we inform our clients and partners that Mapawa Nature Park Corp. (“MNP”) has ceased operations effective August 1, 2020. The effects of the COVID19 pandemic has made our operations no longer viable as a commercial enterprise.
For the past 14 years, MAPAWA has grown to become one of the leading eco-tourism destinations in Mindanao. Amidst its pristine splendor, MNP welcomed countless guests to savor the tranquility and beauty of the MAPAWA mountain ranges and breathtaking horizons. We hosted competitions and events, some of them attended by participants from all over the world who were amazed by its challenging terrain and amazing views.
E. Pelaez Ranch, Inc. (“EPRI”), in partnership with the Department of the Environment and Natural Resources (“DENR”) and other stakeholders, shall continue to preserve and maintain MAPAWA as a center for ecological conservation, biodiversity, and environmental activities.
Thank you for your support and stay safe!

To get here, you can rent a van and tell the driver to proceed to Mapawa Nature Park in Barangay Cugman if you’re already in Cagayan de Oro City. You an also get on a jeepney and jump off at the Mapawa Crossing and take habal-habal from there (P35,- one way) and arrange with driver to pick you up later.
It’s best to call days ahead so the facilitators can prepare and inform you if the place is okay for canyoneering, if the weather is good or if it’s already fully booked. (Source)
