Tonnachau Mountain, Mountain summit in Weno Island, Micronesia.

Tonnachau Mountain rises 340 meters above Weno Island, forming a notable geographical feature near Chuuk International Airport in the Pacific Ocean.

The mountain holds prehistoric fortifications and middens on its summit ridge, with archaeological evidence dating back to 4,000 BCE.

According to Chuukese tradition, the legendary hero Soukachou established a fortress on the mountain after arriving from Kosrae to control the lagoon.

Visitors need to arrange transportation and guidance in advance, as the mountain path requires local knowledge and proper hiking equipment.

The mountain contains numerous Japanese military fortifications from World War II, while its slopes reveal layers of ancient Pacific settlement history.
