Fonhoui, Mountain summit in New Caledonia, France.
Fonhoui is a mountain summit in New Caledonia rising 513 meters (1,683 feet) with marked trails threading through thick forest to its peak. The route crosses rocky ground and climbs steeply in places.
The mountain formed through volcanic activity and tectonic movements that shaped New Caledonia's geology over millions of years.
The mountain holds importance for the Kanak people and appears in their traditional narratives about the land.
Strong hiking boots and plenty of water are essential for the climb due to steep sections and rocky terrain. The trek is easiest during dry periods when the path is less slippery.
The summit serves researchers as an observation post for studying native bird movements across the region. The elevation provides vantage points for tracking bird migration patterns.
