It is bounded to the north by Linabo and Maligaya, to the east by Miglamin, to the south by San Martin, to the southwest by Simaya, and to the west by Violeta.[3] Situated on a fertile plain of the Sawaga Valley, it is a major rice producing area in the city. It is drained by the Abuhan and Balongkot Rivers, which is a source for irrigation for many farmers. It is the most populous village in the Basakan District and it serves as the district's center. The village was home to Bukidnon National Agricultural School which was later transferred to Musuan as Central Mindanao University.[4] Mount Capistrano, a culturally important landmark, is shared by Managok, Simayà, and San Martin. The trail in Managok is the easiest to trek.[5]
