Mt. Talomo
2,674 m above sea level · Davao del Sur · 7.041°N, 125.317°E · effort 7/9

Apo's southern neighbour above Davao City, often linked to it in the long Talomo-Apo traverse. Dense mossy forest, few open views, and a summit that stays in cloud most mornings.
Access and permits
Before you go
IDIS's first-party WMC account reports the Talomo-Tamayong route closed; 2024 DENR-attributed reporting corroborates an indefinite Tamayong restriction. Catalog Baracatan differs from named closed corridor; neither blanket reopening nor blanket closure of all Talomo approaches established.
Arrange with: Local tourism office and protected-area office for the intended approach

Trails
| Trail | Jump-off | Effort | Technical | Distance | Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Baracatan Trail | Brgy. Baracatan, Toril, Davao City | 7/9 | C | 24 km out-and-back (route partly mapped) | 2 days |
Effort (1-9) is computed from distance, ascent and terrain; technical (A-E) follows the trail class, from a clear path (A) to real climbing (E). Elevations, grades and trail data are indicative - always verify with the LGU / DENR before a climb. Routes come from OpenStreetMap and can be partial or outdated; a mapped line does not prove a safe or open path.
Take Mt. Talomo offline
Bundok ng Pinas keeps a personal climb log, records your track with the screen off, saves this mountain's topographic map for use without signal and shows the same access notes on the trail. No account needed.
