Pomoindili

Pomoindili is a summit in New Caledonia that rises approximately 157 meters (515 feet) above sea level in the Pacific Ocean. The peak sits within the island territory's eastern coastal region and forms part of the local topography.

Pomoindili has been part of the landscape known to indigenous Kanak communities for centuries before French colonization reached the region. In recent years, the summit became linked to contemporary conversations about the territory's political future.

Indigenous Kanak communities maintain connections to the land surrounding Pomoindili through traditional practices, stories, and ceremonies passed down through generations.

Reaching the summit requires planning and local guidance, as access is limited and conditions change with the seasons. Visitors should gather information about local conditions before traveling and prepare appropriate gear for the climate.

Recent social movements in 2024 transformed Pomoindili into a reference point for discussions about territorial sovereignty and indigenous rights in New Caledonia.
