Mount Kitanglad is an inactive volcano[9] located in the Kitanglad Mountain Range in Bukidnon province on Mindanao island. It is the fourth highest mountain in the Philippines and has an approximate height of 2,899 metres (9,511 ft).[Note 1] It is located between Malaybalay City and the municipalities of Lantapan, Impasugong, Sumilao, and Libona. It is home to one of the Philippines' few remaining rainforests.[10] It is part of the ancestral domain of the Higaonon, the Talaandig, and the Bukidnon people.[11]

Due to its high elevation, several communications and broadcasting companies constructed relay stations at the summit.
