Land Forms, Topography and Geology 


Port Area, Toledo City, Cebu

The terrain of Toledo City is characterized by narrow coastal plains that give way abruptly to a few rolling hills and rugged mountain ranges and slopes. Roughly twenty square kilometers (2,000 hectares) along the coastline have an elevation of less than forty meters above sea level. The poblacion is located in the middle of this strip, which stretches some fifteen kilometers along the coastline and one to three kilometers inland. There are fairly level and rolling plateaus and valleys comprising some fifty square kilometers spread throughout the interior. 
The highest mountain peak is 700 meters above sea level and is located to the northeast of the Poblacion. Toledo's mountain crusts are of volcanic origin formed millions of years ago
