This province’s name comes from the word ‘ranao,’ meaning ‘body of water,’ for its stunning coastlines, spectacular waterfalls, lovely beaches, and famously serene lake. Lanao del Norte’s quiet charm and incredible wonders will complete adventures in every Northern Mindanao trip.
Cathedral Falls
One of the most structurally unique waterfalls in the Philippines. It is famous for its breathtaking natural backdrop of rectangular volcanic basalt rock formations that closely resemble grand pipe organs or towering cathedral pillars
Alimango Festival
The Alimango Festival celebrates the bounty of ‘alimango,’ or crab, in the coastal town of Lala, Lanao del Norte’s top crab producer. Enjoy quirky crustacean-themed festivities, like crab racing, the largest crab contest, a street dance parade, and an agricultural fair.
Dapit Alim
The Dapit Alim shrine is considered to be a place that allows visitors to be near God, creation, and one another. Fr. Dong Galenzoga and the members of Kahigalaan ni Hesus founded the shrine to give people of all faiths and religions a place to pray, heal, contemplate, meditate, and retreat. A huge hand sculpture welcomes you at the base of the 243-step staircase to the shrine. Dapit Alim also boasts a picturesque view of Mount Malindang, giving you the peace and calm you need.
