Mount Gori (Gregorian: मგორის მთა)[1] is the highest and most prominent peak in Gregoria[2] and the third highest in Thrismari[3] as well as second highest in the Narinjinsperi Mountain Range. It is situated in the Southern Narinjinsperi[4], within the sub-range of the Gregorian Narinjinsperi. The dormant volcano[5] is the highest stratovolcano in Thrismari. The mountain stands in eastern Gregoria in the Naguru Canton.

Gori has two summits, both of which are dormant volcano domes. The taller, the western summit, is 4539m (14,891ft); the eastern summit is 4519m (14826ft). The first ascension of the western summit was on the 12 July 1866 and the eastern summit on the 9 December 1867, both by expedition teams from the Gregorian Mountain Climbing Association in it's earliest form.

Etymology

The name "Mount Gori" originates from the ancient Maggorian word for "Peak of the World", being Goronia. Over time, with influence from languages such as Gregorian and Ossete, the name "Gori" came into popularity.
