East Timor's highest mountain: The Tatamailau
A fatu near Tutuala

This is a list of the mountains and elevations of East Timor over 1000  m . In addition, the Mano Côco is listed here as the highest point on the island of Atauro .

Apart from the alluvial land in the south, East Timor is characterized by its high mountains and small valleys. The highest mountain is the Tatamailau with over 2900  m in the Ramelau mountain range . There are contradicting information about the second highest mountain.

When naming and possible alternative names, it should be noted that Foho is the Tetum word for mountain . In Portuguese the word is Monte , in Bahasa Indonesia Gunung . The English term mount is increasingly found on the Internet and on newer maps. The Portuguese word pico for point is now often replaced by the English peak . With Fatu be characteristic of Timor referred steep walls, such as the Matebian massif with its 2316  m high peaks, the Monte Mundo Perdido at Ossu ( 1763  m ) and the Fatu Laritame ( 1394  m ), the part of the Cuac chain is.

The list is not complete and may contain double entries due to the alternative names. There are also missing other mountains with a height of over 2,000 meters. In addition, the altitude information can vary greatly depending on the source. The list provides an overview of the information available.
