Mount Taranaki
Mount Taranaki, or Mount Egmont, is an active but quiescent stratovolcano in the Taranaki region on the west coast of New Zealand's North Island. The 2518-metre-high mountain is one of the most symmetrical volcanic cones in the world. Because of its resemblance to Mount Fuji Taranaki provided the backdrop for the movie The Last Samurai. The last eruption was in the 1850s or 1860s. Egmont National Park surrounds the mountain.
