Sta. Cruz’s topography is extreme.Mountain ranges and high relief that include part of the famed Mt. Apo, the highest mountain peak in the Philippines,straddle the south, central, north and northwestern portions of the municipality.The rugged topography of the central area gradually undulates toward the coastal plains of the northeastern, eastern and southeastern parts. Here, settlements sprawl contiguously along the coast of Davao Gulf under the vast monotony of coconut plantations. On the western frontier, a plateau stretches toward Barangay Kapatagan of Digos City.The municipal elevation ranges from 10 meters to 2,939 meters above sea level. Of the 18 barangays, 7 are uplands, 9 are upland-lowland and coastaland 2 are lowland-coastal.
History revealed that the year 1880 marked the first successful climb to Mount Apo through the Sibulan Trail of Sta. Cruz in Davao del Sur by a group led by Don Joaquin Rajal.
