Otemanu, Volcanic summit in Bora Bora, French Polynesia.
Mount Otemanu rises 727 meters above sea level, forming the central peak of Bora Bora with vertical walls extending on all sides of the mountain.
The mountain represents the remaining structure of an ancient volcano that originated during the geological formation of Bora Bora island millions of years ago.
Local Polynesian traditions regard Mount Otemanu as a sacred place that has shaped the identity and development of settlements across Bora Bora.
Visitors can observe Mount Otemanu from various viewpoints around the island, with the Four Seasons Resort offering direct views of the mountain's north face.
The mountain's crumbly volcanic rock composition has prevented successful climbing attempts to reach its summit, leaving it unconquered by humans.
