Mount ʻAlava, Mountain summit in National Park of American Samoa, US.

Mount ʻAlava rises 491 meters above sea level, featuring dense tropical forest vegetation and multiple hiking trails through the Eastern District.

The summit area underwent significant infrastructure improvements in March 2015 to repair television and radio communication equipment serving the region.

The mountain trails incorporate traditional Samoan architectural elements, including a fale structure at the summit for gatherings and shelter.

Two different paths lead to the peak: the gradual Mount ʻAlava Trail from Fagasa Pass and the steeper Adventure Trail from Vatia.

The mountain summit contains remnants of an abandoned cableway system alongside a wooden platform that extends above the surrounding forest canopy.

Location: Eastern District

Elevation above the sea: 491 m

GPS coordinates: -14.26518,-170.68825
