Mont Orohena, Mountain summit in Tahiti, French Polynesia
Mont Orohena rises to an elevation of 2,241 meters above sea level, making it the tallest mountain peak in the entire French Polynesian territory.
The central location of Mont Orohena on Tahiti Island reflects the geological formation processes that shaped the South Pacific volcanic landscapes over millions of years.
The mountain stands as a natural monument in French Polynesia, reaching toward the sky from the center of Tahiti with its twin peak configuration.
