[3] The Aurora Memorial National Park covers an area of 5,676 ha (14,030 acres)[4] stretching over 50 km along the scenic Bongabon-Baler road.
Land uses inside the park include both permanent and shifting agriculture (kaingin) and forestry.
[5] The park is promoted by the local government as an eco-tourism destination containing some of the most important rainforests in this part of the region.
Its location in the Sierra Madre range provides a rich habitat to a diverse flora and fauna, including several species of amphibians, reptiles and birds.
[6] The park has been designated an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports significant populations of Philippine ducks, spotted imperial-pigeons, flame-breasted fruit-doves, Philippine eagles, Philippine hawk-eagles, green racket-tails, whiskered pittas, golden-crowned and Luzon striped babblers, and Luzon water-redstarts.
