Mount Bosavi, Extinct volcano summit in Southern Highlands Province, Papua New Guinea.
Mount Bosavi rises 2,507 meters above sea level, featuring a massive crater that spans 4 kilometers in width and 1 kilometer in depth.
The volcanic mountain ceased its activity approximately 200,000 years ago, leaving behind a collapsed cone structure on the Great Papuan Plateau.
Four indigenous groups - Kaluli, Ologo, Walulu, and Wisesi - inhabit the northern region of Mount Bosavi, each maintaining distinct linguistic characteristics.
Access to Mount Bosavi requires extensive preparation due to its remote location and limited infrastructure in the Southern Highlands Province.
A 2009 scientific expedition discovered over 40 new species around Mount Bosavi, including a giant rat measuring 82 centimeters in length.
