Quezon National Forest Park
- Quezon National Forest Park
The Quezon National Forest Park is a national park in The Philippines. It is situated between the towns of Pagbilao, Padre Burgos and Atimonan, in the province of Quezon. The park covers the western end of the isthmus of Luzon.
The Tourism highway, known locally as the "Old Zigzag Road", passes through the middle of the forest park. This highway has many blind corners and hairpin turns, which are monitored by volunteer traffic directors. Buses and large trucks are not allowed, partially because of the steep grades. They are directed to use the "New Zigzag Road", which is part of the Maharlika National Highway, between western Atimonan and eastern Pagbilao.
Hundreds of flora and fauna species have been discovered here. This was where the Filipinos declared revolution against the Japanese on World War II, on Mount Mirador, village of Pinagbanderahan.
