Short video about hiking to the 995m summit of Manucoco, the highest point on Atauro Island. Reaching it involves a tough and steep climb up, and slippery descent. It is significantly harder than Mt Ramelau, with more ascent and descent, a much rougher track, and as it close to sea level, it is hotter. As you climb you pass through a range of vegetation, and in the thick rainforest close to the summit you are likely to hear plenty of birdlife (though seeing them can be a challenge). Other than the views from the summit, it is arguably one of the less scenic hikes on the island, though a decent workout.
