Apo [mountain] - Apo

Japanese: アポ[山] - アポ

A volcano located southwest of Davao City in the southern part of Mindanao Island in the Philippines. It is the highest mountain in the Philippines at 2,954 meters above sea level. It was once a single volcano with Mount Talomo to the north, but it is thought that it lost its summit due to an explosion and became a separate mountain due to a subsequent explosion. Sulfur veins have been discovered on the eastern slope. The surrounding area has been designated a national park.

フィリピンのミンダナオ島南部，ダバオ市の南西にある火山。標高2954mでフィリピンの最高峰。かつては北隣のタロモ山と同じ一つの火山であったが，爆発によって頂上部を失い，その後の爆発により別々の山になったと考えられる。東斜面では硫黄鉱脈が発見されている。周辺は国立公園に指定されている。
