Māngere Mountain, Volcanic summit in Auckland, New Zealand.

Māngere Mountain rises 106 meters above sea level with two large craters and a central lava dome in the Auckland volcanic field.

The mountain first erupted 70,000 years ago, creating lava flows that shaped the surrounding areas and reached into the Manukau Harbour.

The mountain served as a major fortified settlement for the Waiohua iwi during the early 18th century, containing numerous food storage pits.

The mountain features several maintained walking tracks that circle the summit, providing views of the Manukau Harbour and Auckland skyline.

The volcanic cone contains a rare geological formation consisting of a wide crater with a centered lava dome.
