There is a sense of peace to our mind and soul that only the mountains can bring.

Uraya’s Peak is a forest park in Davao del Norte that offers great scenery of the magnificent Talaingod Mountains. The peak has unique chill places like an elevated bed in the trees, hang out places attached to the trees, primitive hammocks and bali inspired frames.
