This 15,200-hectare natural park (pronounced gee-TING gee-TING) is a biological treasure, home to an estimated 700 plant species, 130 bird species and a few rare mammals, including the small, nocturnal tube-nosed fruit bat; many of these are endemic. However, there is hardly any infrastructure. The park is known mainly for its striking peak, G2, which attracts about 100 climbers per year.
Apart from the difficult trail to the summit, there is a moderate cross-country trail (about 18km) from Magdiwang (Jao-asan) to Olango (Espana), which crosses some rivers. This only attains a maximum 300m elevation, and can be done in two hours. Inquire at the Protected Area Office .
