Mt. Madja-as is an open slope, mossy forest and have a highest point. And also you could find a lot of trees, birds, and waterfalls. Mt. Madja-as is a the challenging climbs here in Visayans islands.
Madja-as means 'mataas' in some local
dialect, but in English it can suitably described as 'lofty' instead of
just tall. This loftiness will definitely be felt in the summit which
opens up to the view of Western Panay island and the surrounding seas,
but it extends to the mossy forests of the mountain, in which several
unique flora and found have been identified.
Access is still
limited and Madja-as is currently a relative-unexplored peak, but as we
get more information we expect that Madjaas' rightful place will be
restored.
To reach this mountain you take a bus from your arrival points in Panay Island Then, After that you take a tricycle or jeep to jump off the barangay Flores (Brgy. Flores, Culasi, Antique). this barangay will lead you to Mt. Madja-AS.
The mountain's Malay-sounding name has in fact some Malayan origin, tracing its roots from the story of the Ten Bornean Datus and the ancient "Confederation of Madjaas".
