About Mont Ross
Mont Ross is a stratovolcano, the highest mountain in the Kerguelen Islands at 1,850 metres. It is located in the Gallieni Massif, at the end of the Gallieni Peninsula, east of Baie Larose on the main island of Grande Terre. The volcano is composed primarily of trachybasalt and was active during the late Pleistocene.
