Ouen Toro Hill, Scenic viewpoint in Secteur Sud, Nouméa, New Caledonia.

The hilltop reaches 132 meters in elevation and extends over 60 hectares of protected land within Parc Municipal du Ouen Toro near Anse Vata.

Military installations from World War II remain at the summit, including strategic cannons that were positioned to defend the coastline of New Caledonia.

The land holds deep connections to the Kanak people, who maintain traditional relationships with the natural environment of New Caledonia.

Multiple entry points along Promenade Pierre Vernier provide access to the hiking trails, with bus route L3 stopping near the main trailhead.

The summit presents views of Amedée lighthouse across the water and serves as a launch point for paragliding activities over Nouméa.
