Mount Bintuod is a mountain in the Sierra Madre range in the province of Nueva Vizcayamunicipality of Alfonso Castañeda. It is probably the highest peak in the Philippines longest mountain range with a first GPS-based measurement of 1,915 meters above sea level, from an expedition in April 2012. There are no records of the first ascent, but local tribe people have long established paths.

In some maps this peak is misidentified as Mount Dalimonoc, an actually lower peak adjoining Bintuod to the west.
