Poindi, Mountain summit in New Caledonia, France
Poindi is a summit in New Caledonia reaching 131 meters (430 feet) in height. The peak offers views across the surrounding landscape and toward the island's coastal regions.
The summit became known through European exploration of the Pacific in the 18th century. This region was home to Kanak populations for centuries before becoming part of French colonial territory.
The Kanak people maintain strong connections to the natural landmarks of New Caledonia, including Poindi, through their traditions and customs.
The summit is easiest to reach during the dry season from May to October when conditions are most stable. Early morning hikes work best, as temperatures remain cooler throughout the climb.
The summit is home to several endemic plant and animal species found only in this region. These organisms make it a notable spot for observing New Caledonia's distinctive wildlife.
