Description

Wolo Purumboro is a low hill about 521 m high (GeoNames database figure; the Open-Meteo elevation model gives ~511 m) in Magekapa village, Ende Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, on Flores island. In the Ende-Lio language "wolo" means hill or mountain — as in other Ende-area place names such as Wologai and Wolotolo — so the name literally means "Purumboro Hill". Geographic databases place it in a savanna climate with a prominence of about 192 m; the next higher point (~709 m) lies about 2.3 km to the east, with a bay/sea to the north-west. As with many other NGA-GNS features in East Nusa Tenggara, field documentation is almost non-existent: the record comes from the GeoNames/GNS toponym database, Wikidata and OSM mapping, with no documented climbing route or tourism narrative. The elevation and climate figures are open-data estimates rather than field surveys.
