Mount Macolod

Mount Macolod (other spelling: Maculot) is a dormant stratovolcano located in the municipality of Cuenca, Batangas in the Philippines.

Every year on Holy Week, thousands of pilgrims from nearby towns and provinces climb the mountain as a form of penance.

Mount Macolod and its 700-meter (2,300 ft) high volcanic rock wall called The Rockies are said to be part of Taal Caldera's crater rim.

The younger Volcano Island was formed by numerous explosive hydrovolcanic eruptions in the middle of the lake after the collapse.

Tagaytay Ridge, to the north, is the northern rim of the caldera with Mount Sungay its highest elevation.
