Resorts in Maramag


Maramag, a first class municipality of Bukidnon, Philippines. The province name derived from “Ag Ramag”, a manobo term for “Ag Ramag Ki Dini” which means “Let us eat our breakfast here.”

"The story goes that the Manobos were constantly in conflict with the Maranaos for supremacy over the locality. Each time they set out for the battle they would stop on the bank of Pulangi River where flat stones that serve as their tables abound the area. Atop of these, they would draw their plans and eat their breakfast. This habit becomes their practice that even in times of peace and as a sign of good faith, these “Lumads”, the natives or early settlers invite others who happen to pass by to partake meals with them. Maramag then was a picnic ground were one can rest and take his meal as a short respite either from travel, trekking, hunting and trapping or from battle."

Today, Maramag is popular on their water spring resorts like the "Waig Crystal Resort" and "MGM Resort". The place is really perfect for vacation: stress-free, fresh air, and peaceful place. Both resorts has its various recreational activity so that friends or family members can spend quality time together.
