Ouadounajia is a summit in New Caledonia reaching 244 meters elevation with views across the island's varied landscape and terrain. From this vantage point, you can see the different geographical features and vegetation zones of the territory.

This summit stands in New Caledonia, which France claimed in 1853 and initially developed as a penal colony. This early French presence shaped the exploration and mapping of the island group.

The area around this summit reflects the blending of indigenous Kanak traditions with French influences visible in everyday island life. You notice this mixture in local practices and how people use the surrounding landscape.

The summit is accessible via established road networks from the main population centers across the territory. Access is possible year-round, though local road conditions may vary seasonally.

The mountain sits within an ecosystem containing plant and animal species found only in New Caledonia and nowhere else in the world. This biological distinctiveness makes the area particularly notable for nature enthusiasts.
