Sayre Hwy, Impasug-ong, Bukidnon
A quote from Franklin D. Roosevelt
"A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people."
CEDAR or Center for Ecological Development and Recreation, situated beside the highway in barangay Impalutao, is the main entity backed by the Local Government Unit of Bukidnon and DENR (Department of Environment and Natural Resources) to promote eco-tourism in the province. It has a total land area of about 1,703 hectares. 373 hectares is covered by the man-made and natural forest. It has an elevation of 600 to 1200 meters above sea level with Mount Kibuwa as the highest. A 100-hectare rattan plantation exists in the area. The CEDAR was developed because of the reforestation efforts of the government of Bukidnon. Now dubbed as “An Eco-tourism Site in the Heart of Bukidnon”, it was declared as a protected area and was managed by the government since 1912. It is equipped with man-made swimming pool, sourcing from the natural springs surrounding the area and has five major waterfalls with three being the most accessible. ~Adopted from Wikipedia.
