Mount Tomanivi, previously named Mount Victoria and also known as Tomaniivi, is an extinct volcano located in the northern highlands of Viti Levu. At 1,324 metres (4,344 ft), Mount Tomanivi is the highest mountain in Fiji. A trail leads to the summit of Tomanivi from the village of Navai.
Nabukelevu is a volcano located on the southwest portion of Kadavu Island in Fiji. It is 805 metres (2,641 ft) tall, and last erupted around 1660. It has formed lava domes [1] Nabukelevu is the only area in west Kadavu Island that retains extensive old-growth forest.
Unlike many other volcanoes, the largest hazard from Taveuni is actually its lava flows, which are exceptionally hot (940–1125°C). Because Taveuni is heavily forested, fires can spread fast and easily, but mainly the southern flank of the island will be directly affected by the lava.
