Mount Harriet

The highest peak in South Andaman at 365 metres, Mount Harriet offers a nature trail trek up to Madhuban where rare endemic birds, animals and butterflies can be spotted. The view from this peak is even featured on the back of the Rs. 20 note. During British rule, this peak served as the summer headquarters of the Chief Commissioner, and it remains an ideal spot for a fascinating overview of the outer islands and sea.
