Silisili, Dormant volcano at Savai'i island, Samoa
Mount Silisili reaches an elevation of 1,858 meters and stands at the center of a volcanic chain extending across Savai'i island.
The volcano experienced substantial eruptions in the early 1900s, causing damage to numerous plantations across Savai'i island before entering dormancy in 1911.
The name Silisili derives from the Samoan language, where it translates to 'highest', accurately describing its status as Samoa's tallest peak.
Reaching the summit requires a guided two-day hiking expedition through the mountainous terrain of Savai'i island, with arrangements made through local tour operators.
Mount Silisili ranks as the 24th most isolated peak globally and forms part of the largest shield volcano structure in the South Pacific region.
