Guadalupe Mabugnao Mainit Hot Spring National Park is a protected area of the Philippines located in Barangay Guadalupe in Carcar, Cebu, approximately 50 kilometers from the provincial capital, Cebu City. The park covers an area of 57.50 hectares,[1] occupying an important watershed forest reserve in the central Mantalongon mountain range. It was declared a national park in 1972 by virtue of Republic Act No. 6429.[2]
The park is frequented by daily visitors for its hot springs, where cottages and pools have been developed. Life-size statues of saints and Christ including that of Santo Niño de Cebú have also added to its tourist attractions. A trail up a hill leads to at least three caves, the most explored being Cave Lorett and Cave Moymoy.[3] Near Cave Lorett is another spring and four rivers. The park also contains a dam that supplies Carcar's water.[4]
