Mount Popomanaseu
Rising from the dense interior rainforest of Guadalcanal, Mount Popomanaseu is the highest point in the Solomon Islands and the highest peak in the insular South Pacific outside New Guinea. Its broad, saddle-shaped summit plateau is visible from Honiara on a clear day, though the mountain sees very few visitors given the remoteness of its jungle approach. The peak and its slopes hold deep cultural significance for Guadalcanal's indigenous communities and shelter species found nowhere else on the island.
