Aurora Memorial National Park is a protected area of the Philippines located within the Sierra Madre mountain range between the provinces of Nueva Ecija and Aurora in Central Luzon. The Aurora Memorial National Park covers an area of 5,676 hectares (14,030 acres)[1] stretching over 50 kilometers along the scenic Bongabon-Baler road. Established in 1937 by virtue of Proclamation No. 220, the park initially had an area of 2,356 hectares (5,820 acres).[2] By 1941, its size was more than doubled to its current area.[3] The park was subsequently dedicated to former First Lady Aurora Aragon Quezon in May 1949.[4] The maximum altitude of the park is reported to be 1,000 m, so the main forest type inside the park must be lowland dipterocarp, with only limited areas of montane forest. Land uses inside the park include both permanent and shifting agriculture (kaingin) and forestry.[5]
