Puuroa, Mountain summit in Tahiti, French Polynesia.
Mount Puuroa stands as a volcanic formation within the central mountain range of Tahiti island, reaching towards the Pacific sky.
The mountain formation dates back to the volcanic activity that created the Society Islands archipelago millions of years ago.
Local Polynesian inhabitants traditionally use the mountain slopes for agricultural practices and gathering medicinal plants throughout generations.
The mountain terrain requires appropriate hiking equipment and local guidance, with access primarily available through established natural paths.
The summit provides direct views of both the northern and southern coasts of Tahiti, intersecting with frequent cloud formations.
