I personally ask the guide what it mean by the name Montoria. She told me that, Montoria is a name of a flower that grows abundantly near the river. Since the branches had a lot of torn, villagers will just cut them off. The name of the flower originally called "Ponoriawon" before it was change to Montoria. During the hike, you will see a lot of interesting point like caves, waterfall, giant rock formation and river that you can do water activity. Be sure to check this place out the next time you come to Sabah.
