The word 'surrounding' is the present participle, present tense of the verb to surround.

The present participle of the verb also functions as an adjective and a gerund (verbal noun).

The surrounding villages joined to help the flood victims. (adjective)

A surrounding of nature will help relieve your stress. (noun)
