Musuan Peak

Mt. Musuan Zoological and Biological Garden

On the 2nd day of my Valencia, Bukidnon Escapade, me and my bestie went on the southern part for our next destination - Musuan Peak. A few miles away from Valencia Terminal going to Maramag. The plan was to climb the peak of Mount Musuan in the morning then chill out in Lake Apo by lunch then soak our selves in a cold spring at Edlimar before going home.

Musuan Peak property is part of Central Mindanao University complex and is officially called Mt. Musuan Zoological and Biological Garden. There are several species of plants within Mount Musuan as well as small insects.

Hiking the peak from the ground going to the top will take an hour or less and going down will just take 15mins. Just make sure to bring bottled water to stay hydrated.
